Manchester United defender Harry Maguire on Wednesday accepted the apology of a Ghanaian MP who mocked him during a parliamentary debate on the budget last year
Opposition MP Isaac Adongo compared Vice President Mahamadu Bawumia's economic management of the disputed West African nation to Maguire's performance on the field
In a widely circulated speech on social media last year, Adongo compared Bawumia to Maguire, who he described as "a big threat in the center of Manchester United's defence"
The reference was part of a wider speech that accused Bawumia of mismanaging the economy and causing problems for the people
"Now I apologize to Harry Maguire," Adongo said. He is a revolutionary footballer... now he is scoring goals for Manchester United.”
Maguire accepted the apology in a post on X on Wednesday. "See you at Old Trafford soon," he wrote, referring to the home of Manchester UnitedReuters
