Florian Plettenberg, a trusted voice at Sky Sports, has unveiled fresh insights into Manchester United’s summer transfer strategy, citing GIVEMESPORT.
As the news goes, Manchester United is gearing up to fortify their defensive ranks this summer with a top-tier center-back, and according to Plettenberg, they are steadfast in their pursuit of Matthijs De Ligt. Alongside the Dutch star, United’s radar also includes promising talents Jarrad Branthwaite and Leny Yoro.
Plettenberg remarked, “I’ve learned that Matthijs de Ligt remains a prime transfer target for Manchester United this summer, as previously disclosed. The 24-year-old defender is among several names under internal discussion, alongside Jarrad Branthwaite and Leny Yoro.”
“Erik ten Hag continues to admire De Ligt, who could depart Bayern this summer with a suitable bid on the table. Despite this, there have been no formal offers from Man Utd yet. Concrete negotiations between Bayern and De Ligt are expected post-EURO. At present, Man Utd values De Ligt at approximately 50 million euros.”
