United have not won the Premier League title since Sir Alex Ferguson’s retirement in 2013 and they are no longer guaranteed a place in the top four.
The only trophies they have won in that time are the FA Cup in 2016 under Louis Van Gaal and the EFL and Europa League under Jose Mourinho a year later.
United lay fifth on the league log before the season was suspended because of the Coronavirus pandemic but Maguire believes Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men are on their way to returning to the upper echelons of English football.
"I think you can see from the start of the season, we look a lot more like a team. You can see where we want to go, where we want to head," Maguire told Sky Sports.
"I knew when I first came to Man United, Ole said to me loads and loads that it's a building process but we will get to where we want to be. I can see where we are heading and the style that he wants to implement on our team.
"Don't get me wrong, there are still plenty of aspects we need to improve upon to get to the top, which is where we want to be. We don't want to be challenging for Champions League spots, we want to be challenging for titles.
"We know there is still a lot of improvement to get there, but we are on the right track. I’m sure we will eventually get there."
