Neil Warnock has dismissed suggestions Harry Maguire is the ‘weak link’ in the England team, telling talkSPORT he would be wanted by all the top Premier League clubs if he was available.
The Cardiff manager’s comments come after Matej Vydra admitted the Czech Republic team could look to target Maguire during Friday’s Euro 2020 qualifier at Wembley – which is LIVE on talkSPORT.
Maguire was one of the stars of the Three Lions’ run to the World Cup semi-finals in the summer – and even became an internet meme sensation – but he has struggled for form this season since returning to action for Leicester City.

“I must admit, I didn’t think he’d go that far at the time because I thought his pace would let him down, but he’s just been fabulous.
“You can’t tell me that not many clubs in the Premier League who would want to snap him up if he became available tomorrow.
“Good luck to him. He’s been a credit to everybody.â€
