Manchester United defender Harry Maguire’s appeal against his conviction over a nightclub brawl on the Greek island of Mykonos has been postponed for a year because of a lawyers’ strike.

The 30-year-old England player is appealing against a 21-month suspended sentence following the incident in 2020. His case was due to be heard on Wednesday at a court on the island of Syros, the region’s administrative capital.
