Maguire has seen his playing time at Old Trafford diminish in recent years, and the 31-year-old will likely be used sparingly again in the upcoming campaign with younger players preferred by the club.

While Maguire could simply sit and wait for his shot at United, Yorke suggested that Chelsea could offer a bigger role for the player should both sides consider it.

"Maguire has shown that he is very capable of playing at the highest level still and elite clubs like Chelsea, who are trying to rebuild, might take a chance on Maguire," Yorke said while speaking to BoyleSports, who offer the latest Premier League betting.

“He can clearly still play at the level and a fresh start might just give him that injection to really perform again for another year or two at that top level. So you never know.

“I played until I was 36 so I'm never going to write someone off if they're still in their early 30s. He's still got the attributes to do that. 

“I think players do improve if the team is doing well and winning football matches, football becomes very easy to play. Football is only difficult when things are not going particularly well and then you realize who is really good and who isn’t. 

“With Thiago Silva leaving Chelsea, there's a gap there for an experienced player like Maguire to move into.”
