North End had an average campaign in the EFL Championship, finishing in 14th place, well below the play-offs without being in relegation danger.
But Maguire is sure to be the star attraction as he returns to the face the side where he enjoyed success as the league's top scorer and for whom he scored the winner in the 2016 FAI Cup final.
Cork-born Alan Browne is also set for a homecoming in the colours of the English side.
