Manchester United have agreed a deal with Bayern Munich for the signing of defender Matthijs de Ligt in a deal worth €50 million (€45 million plus €5 million in add-ons).
The transfer is subject to De Ligt passing a medical.
He would need to be registered by midday on Thursday to be available for the opening match against Fulham on Friday night.
In a separate deal, United on Saturday agreed many of the details of a deal for Bayern Munich’s right-back Noussair Mazraoui.
They are expected to proceed with that move once Aaron Wan-Bissaka’s transfer to West Ham United has been completed, according to Sky Sports.
