Man Utd transfer news: Barcelona to give up on Matthijs de Ligt deal if one thing happens
MANCHESTER UNITED will be poised to beat Barcelona to the signature of Matthijs de Ligt if he does not accept their current contract offer, according to huge reports.
Man United: De Ligt would be a 'good fit' at Reds says Stam
Manchester United have challenged Barcelona on De Ligt in recent days, with the Ajax star the most highly-sought youngster in world football.
The Holland international’s stock has risen after a remarkable campaign that has seen him win the Eredivisie title and reach the semi-finals of the Champions League, where they lost to Tottenham.
For a long time, Barcelona have been considered the favourites to sign De Ligt - but Manchester United’s interest in recent times has seen that change.
Mino Raiola is thought to be an obstacle to a move to the Nou Camp, with the super-agent demanding big money for his client.
