The Bayern Munich boss reportedly made an admission to Matthijs de Ligt before he joined Man United.
Bayern Munich boss Vincent Kompany reportedly made a shocking admission to Matthijs de Ligt before the defender completed his move to Manchester United .defence was one of their major weaknesses last season, so club bosses have set about bolstering Erik ten Hag's options this summer.The Dutch defender joined teammate Noussair Mazraoui in swapping Munich for Manchester, with United paying an initial £12.8m fee.
The Dutchman, who played under Ten Hag at Ajax and became the club's youngest ever captain at 18, was expected to stay at the Allianz Arena under new manager Vincent Kompany. Despite that, and the fact that a knee injury and the form of January signing Eric Dier limited his game time last term, Kompany wanted to keep De Ligt.
De Ligt's representatives felt that club bosses made the decision to facilitate his departure, rather than Kompany not wanting him.De Ligt made his United debut off the bench during their Premier League opening day win against Fulham last week.
