Manchester United offer De Ligt five-year contract

Manchester United have reportedly offered Bayern Munich defender Matthijs de Ligt a five-year contract.
According to Sky Germany, there is strong mutual interest in the potential transfer, with the player showing his desire to join Manchester United.

Manchester United’s interest in De Ligt has led to preliminary talks with Bayern, a promising sign that a potential deal could be on the horizon. Erik ten Hag, who worked with Matthijs at Ajax, wants him to be part of his squad at Old Trafford next season.
De Ligt is valued at €50m (£42.4m) including add-ons.
United also maintain their interest in Jarrad Branthwaite but will only return for the player if Everton’s asking price comes down.
