3. His first name isn’t Harry
Maguire’s middle name is Harry.His first name is Jacob – it doesn’t quite have the same ring it, does it?4. There’s a reason he is so good on the ball
One of Maguire’s outstanding traits as a defender is his ability on the ball.With a big build and standing at 6ft4ins that is a great quality to have, but there is a reason for his ball-playing abilities and Maguire revealed why last year.He said: “The reason why I am comfortable on he ball is that when I was a young boy I played centre-midfield until I was 16-18 which marked a time I had my 6ft4ins height.“This was a time I needed up playing centre-back all because I was always the biggest, chubbiest and tallest on the pitch.”
65. Talent runs in the family
The talent in the Maguire household didn’t stop at Harry.His eldest brother, Joe, is two years older and currently plays for League Two side Crawley Town on loan from Fleetwood Town.While his younger brother, Laurence, currently plays for Chesterfield and has captain England C – the nation’s non-league side.
66. He idolises John Terry and Rio Ferdinand
Maguire is Sheffield born and bred and when he was breaking into the first team he aspired to be like Terry and Ferdinand.Before graduating to the first team, he said: “They were the best partnership around when I was growing up.”Maguire would get further with England at a World Cup than his heroes ever did.LIVE on talkSPORT

7. He was in League One Team of the Year for three seasons running
After breaking into the first team at Sheffield United, Maguire became a mainstay in the line-up for the following seasons.So good were his displays at the heart of defence that he was included in the PFA League One Team of the Year for three years running – and eventually he earned a move to Premier League side Hull City for 2.5million.
68. He has been with his childhood sweetheart for seven years
Behind every great man, there is a great woman – and this is no exception with Maguire.He has been with his fiancee Fern for seven years and the pair got engaged in February last year.Maguire has helped Fern during the progression of his career and helped her with university fees.View this post on Instagram STK A post shared by Harry Maguire (@harrymaguire93) on
9. He arrived at his first England call-up with his clothes in a bin bag
Maguire hilariously arrived at his first ever England training session at St Georges Park with all his belongings in a bin bag – which resulted in many on social media saying he looked like a university student at freshers.In the end it turned out to be a prank from his Leicester and England team-mate Jamie Vardy, with Maguire stating: “I asked Vards what he brought his booths and shin in and he was the one who said bin bag so I took his word.”
610. He has the nickname ‘Slab-head’
Vardy is known to be a bit of a prankster and inevitably it was him who gave Maguire a nickname ‘Slab-head.’After Maguire scored his goal against Sweden, the striker gatecrashed the press conference after the game and said to his team-mate: “Hi, this is Jamie Vardy from Vardy News – what is the diameter of your head?”
