Maguire, 31, produced an impressive display at Old Trafford as Erik ten Hag’s side edged past the Cottagers on Friday night.

And on Monday he had some downtime as he took to the fairways for some golf.

Maguire was pictured striking the ball with his driver and admiring his shot.

In another picture, he was tentatively watching the ball after a putt on the green.

And the ex-Leicester man was also spotted using a Ferrari golf buggy.

SunSport understands similar Ferrari buggies to be worth in the region of £18,000.

Maguire is raring to perform for Man Utd this season after missing out on England‘s run at the Euros due to injury.

Ten Hag has added centre-backs Leny Yoro and Matthijs de Ligt to his squad this summer.

But, with Yoro injured and De Ligt only having just arrived at Old Trafford, Maguire partnered Lisandro Martinez and kept a clean sheet against Fulham.

After the game, he told the club website: “I feel good, I feel fit. Physically and mentally, I’m in a good place and I’m looking forward to a big season.

“There are so many games this season. I’m sure there’s going to be a lot of changes to come game-to-game in the starting 11.”

Maguire also discussed the team’s goals for the season.

He added: “I think we don’t really want to set any targets [but] I think this club demands trophies.

“So we want to win another trophy, of course, and in the Premier League we know there are large improvements that we need to do and make from what we did last season.

“Obviously, we want to be in the Champions League spots. We missed out this season as we weren’t good enough in the league.

“For sure, we’ve got to improve on last season and let’s see where it goes and takes us.”

Man Utd ratings vs Fulham as new boys shine... but Mount and Amad struggle

DEBUTANT Joshua Zirkzee was the hero for Manchester United in an evening where their new guns showed what they are all about.

The Dutchman had to remain patient for his opportunity but he took it brilliantly once he came on the pitch.

Zirkzee came on for Mason Mount on the hour mark and had been quiet up until his pivotal moment.

Ten Hag will take positives from the display and it was his astute sub which led to the winner as his side got their season off to a flyer.

Here is how SunSport’s Phil Thomas rated the Red Devils display…

Andre Onana – 6

Made an outstanding early tip over from Kenny Tete and was rarely seriously troubled beyond that.

Noussair Mazraoui – 7

A pretty impressive debut from the Moroccan. Looks assured on the ball, gets forward in support and can put a foot in.

Harry Maguire – 7

Dominant and commanding in defence, but embarrassingly booked for diving at the other end. Really Harry, even you?

Lisandro Martinez – 6

Skinned by Adama Traore early. Showed all his defensive guile in how he handled him after that, and got back superbly to deny a breakaway goal.

Diogo Dalot – 6

Had his hands full dealing with Traore’s pace, but knocked in a couple of wicked curling crosses at the other end.

Casemiro – 7

Headed over then shot over, but two great passes put Fernandes clean through. Often looked United’s most likely source of a goal.

Kobbie Mainoo – 8

So crisp, so tidy, so rarely wastes a pass. Another near-flawless, if not exactly flair-packed, display from the youngster. Fizzed a shot just wide, too.

Mason Mount – 5

So desperate to do well, which earned him an early booking. Only Leno’s legs denied him the goal his effort deserved.

Amad Diallo – 5

Made one marvellous mazy run into the box, although the tumble to ground that followed wasn’t so impressive.

Marcus Rashford – 6

Still nowhere near the star of two years ago, but another step in the right direction at least. Some way to get yet, though.

Bruno Fernandes – 7

Fluffed two great chances, driving at keeper Leno’s legs twice when Casemiro put him through, but sprayed passes around and started the move for the winner.

Subs

Alejandro Garnacho (for Diallo, 60mins) – 6

Put a spark in United when he came off the bench and teed up the winner.

Joshua Zirkzee (for Mount, 60 mins) – 7

The debut he dreamed of. Barely had a touch, but then fed the ball wide and stuck out his left foot to jab the winner.

Matthijs de Ligt – (for Mazraoui, 81 mins) – 5

Was only on for the last ten minutes and looked solid although he did not have too much to do

Jonny Evans (for Maguire, 81 mins) – 5

Scott McTominay (for Mainoo, 84 mins) – 5
