The Manchester United captain was booed by some fans as he led his team to a win over Crystal Palace.
The manager of the new team, who plans to partner the England international in central defence with a new signing named Lisandro Martinez, confirmed that the player would be the captain.
Some fans in the crowd at the Cricket Ground made their feelings known during United's victory.
There are a small number of people who follow the team from the UK.
Although it is difficult to know who was booing, which was audible every time Maguire touched the ball inside the first half hour, the concern will be that it will follow United for the rest of their pre-season.
Fans targeted him for his poor form. Police searched the 29-year-old's home in April after he received a threat to his family.
There were many positives from this victory for United, who made it three pre-season wins from three matches and took their goals tally to 11.
Anthony Martial profited from excellent close control and a precise first-half cross from Diogo Dalot to score all three of his goals.
United scored two goals after the break. Martial exchanged passes with Jadon Sancho before finding van de Beek, whose cut-back was steered into the far corner by MarcusRashford.
The assist for Sancho came from Martial, who ran beyond the Palace defence before applying a smart finish.
The one glaring negative was the way in which Palace scored their goal, as United keeper David de Gea, who had taken the captain's armband after Ten Hag replaced all his outfield players, somehow allowed a soft downward headed from Joel Ward to slither in.
Will Fish was sent off in the last stages for bringing down Victor Akinwale when he was the last man.
Ten Hag was in the stands at Selhurst Park for the final game of the season when Palace defeated United.
Nine senior Palace players are absent from this trip, which is not ideal.
It was Palace's second successive tour defeat and a nasty looking hand injury to goalkeeper Jack Butland made things worse.
Malcolm Ebiowei was a summer arrival from Derby who United were interested in signing.
Ebiowei forced a low save from De Gea after an excellent turn.
