Despite already having signed Leny Yoro from LOSC Lille, Man Utd want to sign another centre-back to bolster the club’s defence. They have been trying to sign Bayern Munich defender Matthijs de Ligt but the negotiations are proceeding at a snail’s pace.
We covered a story that the 24-year-old had already agreed to a five-year deal with the Red Devils which will see him earn around £170,000 a week. This works out to around £44.2m, should the Dutchman see out his contract at Old Trafford.
