Manly have confirmed they have ended negotiations with Michael Maguire, as they continue to look for Trent Barrett's replacement.

The Sea Eagles released the following statement on their website.

The Club notes reports in today's media in relation to the future structure of its football department.

As was shared with you at our Member Forum on Wednesday night, the Club is in ongoing discussions with a number of outstanding candidates to ensure the highest level of professional coaching for its playing group in response to Trent Barrett's resignation.

These discussions remain ongoing and as advised on Wednesday, the Club expects to confirm the outcomes of them in the very near future.

As a part of this process, it became clear yesterday that the Club could not meet the proposed terms of one of these potential candidates, Michael Maguire, and negotiations came to an end.

The Club remains in discussions with several experienced and highly qualified candidates with a view to making this key appointment as a priority.
