The 20-year-old, who can play at left-back or centre-back, has agreed a contract at Highbury Stadium which will expire in the summer of 2019.

He joined the Reds aged nine but only made one senior appearance for the Premier League side, which came in the FA Cup against Exeter in January 2016.

Neither side has disclosed the terms of the transfer.

Maguire had a loan spell at Leyton Orient in 2015-16, but only featured once for the O's.
