Per the Athletic, Matthijs de Ligt's camp felt Bayern Munich was playing games regarding his transfer, leading to his eventual move to Manchester United.
De Ligt reportedly met with Vincent Kompany, who assured him he was seen as a top defender, deflecting responsibility for his sale to the board.
Bayern Munich’s spokesperson denied the claims that Kompany stated De Ligt was his 'No 1 defender', creating further uncertainties in the transfer narrative.
This transfer saga reflects on Bayern's focus to reduce salaries and reshape the squad under the vision set by Max Eberl and Christoph Freund.
