Manchester United have reportedly made their first offer to Matthijs de Ligt with the defender now waiting on Bayern Munich to agree a transfer fee with the Red Devils. Erik ten Hag is said to have made signing De Ligt a priority this summer, having previously worked with the Dutchman at Ajax. According to Dutch publication De Telegaaf, the former Juventus defender is waiting on both clubs to agree a transfer fee, which would give him the green light to complete a move to England. Bayern paid £65m to sign De Ligt from Juventus in 2022. However, wide-ranging reports suggest that United will not have to pay as substantial a fee as that to lure him from Germany.
