Manchester United transfer news with Erik ten Hag and Ineos looking to add a centre-back to their squad this summer and Bayern Munich defender Matthijs de Ligt is the latest name linked
Manchester United's summer transfer window is expected to hot up from now onwards as the Reds enter a new financial year.
Jack Flintham The switch towards De Ligt as a target this summer shows that United are learning their lessons from years gone by. Instead of being embroiled in a back-and-forth with Everton over Jarrad Branthwaite's valuation, the Reds are moving on and seeing what else is out there. Tyrone Marshall Juventus thought they had a good deal when they signed De Ligt for €75m. Bayern Munich thought they'd got a steal when they spent €67m to sign him three years later. Now, here we are, two years further down the line and United are being tempted by a €50m asking price. There's a pattern emerging here.
George Smith It was not all that long when De Ligt was bracketed as one of the most promising centre-backs in world football. That status earned him a €75m move to Juventus in 2019, just weeks after he had played his part in Ajax's shock run to the Champions League semi-final. Matthew Abbott Martinez and Matthijs de Ligt spent mere weeks as teammates at Ajax in the summer of 2019, while Andre Onana made over 100 appearances with the then-teenager in front of him for the Dutch club. United backing Erik ten Hag to get the best out of them again at Old Trafford would be a case of doubling down on their transfer policy of recent seasons as the manager approaches this stay-of-execution season at Old Trafford.
His talent is undeniable, there are few better centre-backs in European football when he's fit and in form, he played under Erik ten Hag at Ajax and would likely adapt well given he is fluent in English and has played in Italy and Germany already.
