Manchester United have been handed a huge transfer boost in their pursuit for Dutch defender, De Ligt as the 23-Year-Old hands in transfer request to leave Bayern Munich this summer.
Matthijs de Ligt is expected to join Manchester United soon as the club are negotiating a deal with Bayern Munich for the defender.
Everything points towards this deal being completed sooner rather than later, with De Ligt keen on the move and the Bundesliga giants open to selling him.
Various reports suggest that an agreement could be made for around £40 million, with add-ons and contract clauses likely to be a feature.
While Jarrad Branthwaite appeared to be the priority option, De Ligt has long-term admirers at Old Trafford, none more so than manager Erik ten Hag.
The defender could have the perfect start at the club when his move is confirmed after a summer exit opened the door for his dream United shirt number.
De Ligt broke through into the Ajax first-team wearing no.36 – that was the shirt number he donned during the 2017 Europa League final against United. He was only 17 at the time.
