The Hammers came close to signing Maguire during David Moyes’ tenure, but the move fell through late in negotiations.
With his contract at Old Trafford coming to an end, West Ham believe this summer is their best chance yet to bring him to the London Stadium.
Maguire, who joined Manchester United from Leicester City in 2019 for a world record fee for a defender, is expected to leave the club at the end of the season.
Harry Maguire has been in good form this season
Despite facing heavy criticism during the difficult periods of his United career, the 32-year-old has enjoyed a remarkable revival and has become one of the side’s most reliable and influential performers.
Under Michael Carrick, Maguire has enjoyed a return to form, displaying the leadership, aerial dominance and defensive organization that once made him a key figure for club and country.
His recent performances have been particularly impressive. Returning from injury, he played a crucial role in back-to-back wins over Manchester City and Arsenal, two of the strongest teams in the league.

Man United could replace Maguire with a younger CB
With Man United planning a major squad overhaul and several defensive reinforcements expected, Maguire may become redundant regardless of his recent performances.
West Ham see Maguire as a valuable, beneficial addition to their backline, especially given their need for experience and leadership in defence.
For Maguire, the move could mean the chance to start a new chapter in his career, potentially securing regular playing time and a leadership role at another Premier League club.
His professionalism, resilience and ability to bounce back from setbacks have earned him respect in the United dressing room, qualities that West Ham believe would significantly strengthen their squad.
