'Main signing' - Manchester United fans sent wild by Erik ten Hag comments on Jurrien Timber

Manchester United supporters have been sent wild by comments from Erik ten Hag as speculation over the future of Ajax starlet Jurrien Timber intensifies. Timber, 20, burst on to the scene in Amsterdam under Ten Hag and already has six Netherlands international caps to his name.

Timber was part of the Eredivisie-title winning squad this season and continues to have potential suitors from right across Europe on red alert. The centre-back has two years left to run on his contract.

However, the player has been tipped for the very top by incoming United manager Ten Hag in the past and the 52-year-old spoke openly about what might happen with the defender moving forward. Bayern Munich are among the elite clubs reported to be interested in securing his signature.
