Manchester United’s £190,000-a-week star Harry Maguire is spotted enjoying bingo at Haven holiday park
Football star Harry Maguire was spotted enjoying bingo at a Haven holiday park despite being worth a whopping £18million.
The Manchester United defender, who earns £190,000-a-week, was seen at the Haven Presthaven resort in north Wales on Sunday evening where a three-night stay for a family of four costs just £319.
Holidaymaker Jenny Holt said she first saw Maguire’s footballer younger brother, Laurence who plays for League Two side MK Dons before the Premier League star also turned up.
Maguire, 31, was taking some time to relax at the park after he played 79 minutes of United’s 2-1 defeat to Brighton on Saturday.

Jenny, from Stoke-on-Trent, told What’s The Jam: ‘We were offered free drinks all around which we found strange thinking it was just a special birthday or something until we saw what looked like Harry Maguire’s family.
‘We originally were aware of some VIP guests when we were approached by Haven staff and asked if we could move our seats during the evening entertainment, as the ones we were sat at were reserved.
‘Unbeknownst to us, for the Maguire family.’
The next day, Jenny, 32, and her son Laylan, 10, and daughter, Emily, 15, were starstruck.
She said: ‘ At around 8.30pm Harry Maguire strolled into the live lounge at Haven with security.
‘Everyone was starstruck.
‘Kids were jumping up and down with excitement and the whole atmosphere changed.
‘My children and my friend’s son were ecstatic as they are huge Manchester United fans, with Maguire being our favourite player.
‘We just could not believe our eyes.
‘Harry Maguire was at Haven, enjoying bingo and the evening show.’

She continued: ‘There was a group of kids waiting excitedly behind him for the chance of a photo and were asked by security to wait respectively so he could enjoy the show.
‘Eventually, my son and daughter approached Laurence who then got Maguire to sign my son’s top using his bingo dabber.
‘Laurence was up dancing with the children, it was strange because we were sharing a dance floor with the likes of the Maguire family.
‘It was surreal and it really made everyone’s night!’
And, much to their delight, Jenny and her family managed to grab a picture with the footballer.
She added: ‘Only a few managed to get photos, as he was there with his family, so we are very grateful and lucky.
‘We’re just a normal family, with a little boy who plays in defence and looks up to Maguire as an inspiration.
‘It’s definitely a memory we can all treasure.’
It’s not the first time the footballer has been spotted enjoying a humble staycation.
He’s previously been spotted outside an ice cream parlour in the seaside town of Mablethorpe, near Skegness, Lincolnshire.
The defender has started for Man United in the first two games of the season, but the team lost 2-1 against Brighton and Hove Albion.
