I will join Man United on one condition – Matthijs de Ligt has already told Sir Jim Ratcliffe his demands to join Man United as Talks ongoing

Matthijs de Ligt has expressed his desire to play under managers who truly want him and within an attacking system amid links of a transfer to Manchester United.

The Mirror notes that De Ligt, 24, is reportedly in the running for a summer transfer back to Ajax, where he was previously managed, making him one of United’s top targets.

After three years with the Turin-based club, the Dutch defender signed a big contract to transfer from Juventus to Bayern Munich just two years ago.

Now that De Ligt has apparently informed his agent Rafaela Pimenta that he would only contemplate leaving the Bavarian giants for the Red Devils.

It seems he may be prepared for another move, this time to Manchester. After discussing the significance of a club’s management demonstrating their commitment to the game, De Ligt shared some insights into what attracts him to a club in an interview with ESPN following his transition to Bayern.

“First of all that the club wants you is obviously a big thing, I think the board really showed me that they wanted me to become a player of Bayern Munich that also says a lot for me because it’s really important,” he stated in 2022.

“I think the club suits me really well, I think it’s offensive football, hard training [and] high intensity, I think that’s something that I really search [for] in a club and that’s perfectly in my world.”
