Reports: De Ligt agrees Man United move, deal with Bayern close
Bayern Munich defender Matthijs de Ligt has agreed personal terms with Manchester United on a long-term contract, according to Sky Germany.
Bild also reports that the Dutchman has decided to join Manchester United, with the German outlet stating that his management has informed Bayern of his intentions.
Both publications report that negotiations are at an advanced stage and that a full agreement between the two clubs is close.
It has previously been reported that a fee of €50 million plus add-ons is on the table.
Should the deal go through, Bayern could use the money from the sale to sign Jonathan Tah from Bayer Leverkusen.
De Ligt joined Bayern from Juventus two years ago for a reported €67 million.
Since then, he has scored five goals and provided two assists in 73 appearances for the Bavarians.
He was part of the Dutch squad for the European Championship, but didn't make a single appearance.
