Man Utd and Bayern close to agreement

July 11, 2024 Bundesliga

Manchester United and Bayern Munich are reportedly edging closer to an agreement over the fee for Dutch defender Matthijs de Ligt.

The Netherlands international has just gone out of Euro 2024 following last night’s 2-1 defeat to England in the semi-finals, and one imagines that could speed things up on his future.

See below for Fabrizio Romano’s post on X as he says Man Utd and Bayern now seem to be nearing an agreement on De Ligt’s transfer fee, with the Bundesliga giants pushing for something in the region of €50million, though it remains to be seen how United might try to structure this…

It seems, from what Romano has previously reported, that De Ligt won’t necessarily be United’s only centre-back target.

See below as the Italian journalist has previously posted about Everton’s Jarrad Branthwaite also being lined up by MUFC in a separate deal from De Ligt…

Everton insist on £65/70m for their CB, de Ligt talks with Bayern continue with Man United increasingly confident.
