Bayern Munich defender Matthijs de Ligt might be on the move this summer, with transfer rumors swirling around him. The 24-year-old Dutch international has caught the eye of Paris Saint-Germain, who want to strengthen their defense.
According to RMC Sport, PSG have been targeting de Ligt, under contract with Bayern until 2027, as a key addition to their squad. However, recent reports indicate that Manchester United now have a clear path to signing him.
Journalist Christian Falk reports that de Ligt has accepted Bayern’s decision to sell him. He only wants to join Manchester United and has not agreed to move to PSG, despite their interest.

The information from Falk aligns with what transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reported this week. According to Romano, no other clubs are involved in the conversation for de Ligt because his entire focus is on Manchester United.
Moreover, the Dutchman only gave the green light to head to Old Trafford. Barring anything unforeseen, it seems as though de Ligt could be heading to the Premier League rather than the French capital.
