Transfer news : Matthijs de Ligt is a target for Manchester United

The latest transfer news and rumors from Manchester United involve potential moves for Bayern Munich defender Matthijs de Ligt and Monaco midfielder Youssouf Fofana.

United, under the management of Erik ten Hag, have already secured signings such as Joshua Zirkzee and Leny Yoro but are still exploring further additions.

De Ligt is a target for United, but their initial bid of €35million (£29.5million) has been rejected by Bayern. The Bundesliga club is reportedly holding out for a higher fee in any potential deal for the talented defender.

Manchester United also continue to be linked with strengthening their midfield in the ongoing summer transfer window.
