It seems Manchester United fans are taking every little transfer rumour on Twitter with a pinch of salt. However, after Italian journalist Alfredo Pedulla tweeted out the Harry Maguire deal was ‘done’, it seems the Old Trafford faithful are far from convinced.
Harry Maguire to United is a done deal. #mufc [@AlfredoPedulla]

Maguire has been a transfer target for the Old Trafford giants since last summer, where he formed part of the targets the board refused to buy under former manager Jose Mourinho.
Talks have stalled this summer, with the England international said to be furious with his club Leicester City over the lack of movement for his ‘dream’ move to the north-west club.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Manchester United remain locked in talks with Leicester City for Maguire.
Here is a selection of tweets from fans following the tweet by Pedulla claiming a deal is ‘done’:
