Harry Maguire responds to Ghana MP after his apology for mocking Manchester United star
22.11.2023 - 17:43 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Harry Maguire has accepted the apology of a Ghanaian MP after he apologised for publicly mocking him last year. A year ago, MP Isaac Adongo compared Vice-President Mahamudu Bawumia's economic management to Maguire's poor performances on the pitch for Manchester United.
Adongo had mocked former United captain Maguire and labelled him 'the biggest threat at the centre of the Manchester United defence.'
Earlier this week, Adongo publicly apologised to the England international for the comments he made last year, hailing Maguire a 'transformational footballer' for overcoming his struggles of last season. That didn't stop the MP from launching another attack on the Vice-President though, with Adongo adding, "As for our Maguire, he is now at the IMF (International Monetary Fund) with a cup in hand."
EXCLUSIVE: United eyeing another clearout to break double figures
OPINION: The Glazer family have done what everyone expected during takeover process
Bawumia is the head of the Ghanaian government's economic management team as they face their most severe economic crisis in years. The country took a $3bn (£2.4bn) loan from the IMF, and last year inflation in Ghana reached a record 54% but has since fallen to around 35%.
Now, in the latest twist to this bizarre story, Maguire has publicly accepted the apology of Adongo and even welcomed him to visit United's home ground in the future.
Replying to a video of the initial apology on social media, the United defender wrote: "MP Issac Adongo apology accepted . See you at Old Trafford soon," followed by emojis of a handshake and a smiley face.
