Manchester United might have fresh hope of completing a deal for Ajax starlet Jurrien Timber after all with his agent in Manchester.
The Red Devils have been linked with a swoop for the versatile young defender for the majority of the summer, with new boss Erik ten Hag understood to be a huge fan. However, the Dutchman’s initial attempts to tempt Timber to Old Trafford looked to be ending in frustration.
It was suggested that Timber was not convinced of a transfer to United, with doubts over his place in the Netherlands national side should he fail to earn a role in the first-team should a summer move be completed.
