Bayern Munich defender Matthijs de Ligt might be on the move this summer, with his name frequently popping up in transfer rumors. The 24-year-old Dutch international is reportedly a target for Paris Saint-Germain, who are looking to strengthen their defense.
Earlier this month, RMC Sport reported that PSG are targeting the Bayern Munich center-back, under contract until 2027, as a key addition to their defense. However, Manchester United appears to have an edge over the Parisians as they look to secure the former Ajax standout.
The latest information comes from Sky Sport Germany’s Florian Plettenberg, who reports that the Bundesliga side have set their price on de Ligt. According to Plettenberg, Bayern Munich demands at least €50 million plus bonus payments for the Dutch defender.
Manchester United have not presented a formal offer for the player despite rumors linking them to de Ligt. The player’s agent, Rafaela Pimenta, is in direct contact with the Red Devils to find an agreement and a top solution for de Ligt, as manager Erik Ten Hag really wants him.
