According to information from Sky Sport Germany, Bayern Munich will accept to let midfielder Matthijs de Ligt leave if they receive a fee of about £42 million.

Center back is one of the positions that Man United is rushing to fill in this summer transfer window after the departure of duo Raphael Varane and Jonny Evans.

Throughout the past time, the Red Devils have considered midfielder Jarrad Branthwaite as the top target to strengthen their defense, but Everton’s asking price for the English star at 70 million pounds has made the Old Trafford team’s leadership hesitate. .

Realizing that Everton is “stubborn” in the above deal, Man United is gradually turning to other cheaper targets and Bayern’s De Ligt has emerged as the leading candidate. Although the Dutch star has always been a mainstay, important at the Allianz Arena team since coming to Germany to play football in the summer of 2022, but new Gray Tigers captain Vincent Kompany does not consider the 24-year-old player in the club’s future plans and wants the board of directors to sell De Ligt soon in order to increase shopping budget.

Recently, sources from Sky Sport Germany had many notable updates when this newspaper said that the Bavarian club would accept the former Juventus star to leave if it received about 42 million pounds.

This is a fee that will certainly surprise many people because 2 years ago Bayern spent 70 million pounds to recruit a player born in 1999 from Juventus.

As for Man United, despite having a tight shopping budget this summer, the above valuation is clearly still suitable for the Red Devils.

Sky Sport Germany also confirmed that coach Erik ten Hag will push the board of directors to buy De Ligt in the near future because in the past both of them worked together at Ajax Amsterdams and achieved a lot of success.
