Over the past few weeks, several claims in Germany have stated that Manchester United are keen on signing Bayern Munich’s Matthijs de Ligt this summer.
On Monday, Fussball News reported the Red Devils and the Bundesliga side have held ‘very constructive’ talks. It was also explained that there is no doubt the defender will end up at Old Trafford.
Sky Deutschland journalist Florian Plettenberg took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share the latest on Manchester United’s chase to sign the 24-year-old.
De Ligt has an agreement in place with the English club, and they need to agree a deal with Vincent Kompany’s side to secure his services.
Manchester United need to step up their efforts as they haven’t held concrete negotiations with the Bavarian club in the last 72 hours.
Bayern seem to be willing to sell the centre-back in this window as the journalist states they are still waiting for the ‘final concrete offer’ from Ten Hag’s side.
The German giants want to sign Bayer Leverkusen star Jonathan Tah and they can only go ahead with this deal once De Ligt is sold.
