Personal terms agreed: Man United agree £94.2m transfer fee to sign superstar as player arrives in Manchester to sign five-years transfer deal


Man United have agreed £94.2m terms in fee and wages to sign De Ligt from Bayern Munich in the summer transfer window, as per reports.

The Dutch international had already agreed on a contract that will make him earn £200,000 a week, £52m in the next five years.

However, the Red Devils were stalling on reaching an agreement over the fee and were not prepared to meet the asking price of 50 million euros, £42.2m.

Now, Man Utd have agreed the exact fee with Bayern Munich to finally sign Matthijs de Ligt.

The Old Trafford outfit had a habit of paying over the odds to secure signings and supporters expected that to change under the ownership of Jim Ratcliffe.

In all fairness, taking into consideration the transfer business in this summer transfer window, nothing has changed.

Man Utd paid more than the release clause set by Bologna to sign Joshua Zirkzee from the Italian club.

Moreover, the 20-time English champions paid 70 million euros for an unproven youngster in the form of Leny Yoro, who is now out for months.

Finally, when Man Utd’s delaying tactics did not work, they eventually met Bayern’s asking fee of £42.2m to sign De Ligt.

With Yoro out injured, the situation in the central defense demanded another signing and the arrival of the Netherlands international should help.

United must now ensure that the medical and all the formalities are completed in time so the former Ajax man is ready for the Premier League opener next weekend.

DONE DEAL: Joao Felix has now returned to Chelsea after saying yes to a deal bid of £56 million offered by Chelsea. Chelsea have reunited in their pursuit of Joao Felix to further bolster Enzo Maresca’s attacking prowess this season, with a lot of speculation going on between the two clubs. According to reports from the Athletic, Chelsea could sign the young star, but it remains to be seen if his would fit Enzo Maresca’s style of play. Joao Felix feels like a luxury. That is the sort of player he is and with Chelsea’s current options in attack, adding him in the next couple of weeks would fit the description of that word. There is no denying Felix’s talent. It is simply extraordinary. But there are doubts whether he will fit into the system under Enzo Maresca at Stamford Bridge. The 24-year-old is one of those players that can be used sort of anywhere on the front line. A Swiss Army knife. This is the sort of player Maresca wants at the club,

Manchester United Possible Signing This January The January transfer window is approaching, and Manchester United has been linked with several potential signings. These include Joao Felix, Alvaro Morata, Goncalo Ramos, Dusan Vlahovic, and Jordan Pickford. Here's an overview of these rumored signings and their likelihood of happening: Joao Felix – Atletico Madrid: Joao Felix has had a falling out with Atletico Madrid and has not been pleased at the club. United is looking for a forward after Cristiano Ronaldo's departure, and Felix's technical play is appealing. The 23-year-old is also on the radar of other clubs like Arsenal and Chelsea. Likelihood: 7/10 – Loan with an option to buy. Alvaro Morata – Atletico Madrid: If Joao Felix doesn't join United, Alvaro Morata from Atletico Madrid is another option.
