Harry Maguire’s mother has come in defence of his son following the umpteen criticism he suffers when playing for Manchester United and the Three Lions of England.
Since Maguire secured a move to Manchester United from Leicester, the former Leicester player has been an object of mockery and criticism by football fans who don’t appreciate his playing efforts as many feel his errors are getting too many.
In her statement she said:
“As a mum, seeing the level of negative and abusive comments which he’s receiving from some fans, pundits, and the media is disgraceful and totally unacceptable to any walk of life, never mind someone who works his socks off for club and country”.
“I was there in the stands as usual, it’s not acceptable what’s been created over nothing”.
“I understand that in world of football there are ups and downs, positive and negatives but what Harry receives has gone far beyond football”.
“For me seeing him go through what’s he’s going through is not ok. I’d hate to have to see other parents or players go through this in future, especially young boys and girls breaking through the ranks today”.
“Harry has a massive heart and it’s a good job he’s mentally strong and can handle it as others may not be able too”.
“I wish this sort of abuse on nobody”.
