Man United could potentially look to take advantage of Juventus’ hesitancy over Matthijs de Ligt ’s new contract with a move for the Dutch defender.
New Red Devils’ boss Erik ten Hag is keen to add to his centre-back options ahead of his first season in charge at Old Trafford, with United having struggled from a defensive perspective next season. Meanwhile, the Dutchman is set to make a few sacrifices regarding his squad.
Eric Bailly, Axel Tuanzebe and Aaron Wan-Bissaka are among the players likely to be sold, leaving the club low on defenders heading into the 2022/23 campaign. A number of options have of course already been mentioned as potential new signings ahead of the summer transfer window, with Ajax starlet Jurrien Timber having emerged as a priority target.
