With ten Hag making it clear that a new central defender is at the very top of his summer wishlist, it appears that the Red Devils are inching closer towards getting their standout target through the doors at Old Trafford.
Already in contact with Bayern Munich and making their intentions clear, it looks like ten Hag is set for a reunion with former Ajax protege Matthijs de Ligt.
Reports over the past week have suggested that the Old Trafford hierarchy have offered a five-year deal and are growing in confidence that a deal can be struck between all parties over the coming days.
With Bayern looking to trim their wage bill after signing Crystal Palace ace Michael Olise last week, the German icons have already accepted that they will take a dent on the £63.6million they paid Juventus two years ago.
