Per <a href="https://sport.sky.de/transfer/news/34132/13176553/wechsel-von-de-ligt-vom-fc-bayern-zu-manchester-united-rueckt-naeher" target="_blank">Sky Germany</a>, De Ligt has decided that he definitely wants to move to Old Trafford this summer to reunite with Ten Hag. He worked under the United boss at Ajax during the famous 2018-19 season, which saw them go on to win the domestic double and reach the Champions League semi-final, defeating Real Madrid and Juventus before losing to Tottenham in heartbreaking fashion.

WHAT HAPPENED?

As per the report, Bayern have set an asking price of €50 million (£42m/$54m) and with agreements having already been reached with De Ligt by the Red Devils, all that remains is for United to reach Bayern's expectations. Sky expects the agreement to be reached within the next few days, but a medical is yet to be scheduled.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

United are also reportedly set to sign De Ligt's Netherlands team-mate <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/joshua-zirkzee-manchester-united-transfer-bologna-striker-agree-deal/blt0c21ce27f1829f3a" target="_blank">Joshua Zirkzee this summer from Bologna for a reported fee of €42.5 million (£36m/$46m)</a>.

DID YOU KNOW?

The Red Devils will hope to complete the signing of De Ligt as soon as possible as they will want to have him join their pre-season tour to the United States.
