Ahead of Man Utd Premier League opener against Wolves, Maguire trained with the team Wednesday morning.

The 39-year-old was replaced as Man Utd captain by Bruno Fernades, and made only16 Premier League appearances last season, with Lisandro Martinez, Victor Lindelof, and Raphael Varane preferred as center backs over the Englishman.

Maguire was removed as captain earlier in the summer, with midfielder Bruno Fernades named as his successor.
