West Ham coach Nolan: We were close to signing Man Utd defender Maguire

West Ham assistant coach Kevin Nolan admits they were close to signing Manchester United defender Harry Maguire.
Maguire saw an offer from West Ham accepted by United but he rejected the move due to a dispute over his contract payout.
Speaking to talkSPORT, Nolan explained: "I think it was very close, I was a bit upset that we didn't make it (happen).
"I think it was just in the end, the money didn't get sorted from what I can gather which is obviously upsetting from our behalf because we wanted to (sign him).
"Probably upsetting from Harry's behalf and probably United's behalf as well.
"I think the gaffer was in contact with Harry, his agent and everything else but yeah, obviously we then had to move onto our next target."
