According to current media reports, Matthijs de Ligt’s move to Bayern Munich is getting closer and closer. According to reports, Munich will make an official offer for the 22-year-old in the coming days. The player side would also like to speed up the move to the German record champions. More and more details regarding the transfer are now becoming known.
As “Sky” reported on Friday, the Munich team agreed on a 5-year contract with de Ligt until 2027. Accordingly, the central defender should collect 17-19 million euros per year at FCB in the future, which would make him one of the top earners on the Isar right away.
The pay TV broadcaster has also revealed more details regarding the Bavarian offer for the Dutchman.
Will de Ligt be significantly cheaper than previously thought?
Update de Ligt: It’s becoming more and more concrete. Right now his management is only negotiating with Salihamidzic/Bayern and not with #CFC or other competitors. These are the next steps to make that big transfer real …???????? @SkySportDE @Sky_Marc ???????? https://t.co/Mafc2RYxMa

While Italian media recently announced that Bayern are willing to pay up to 90 million euros for the 22-year-old defender, “Sky” has denied this sum. According to transfer insider Florian Plettenberg, the Munich offer will amount to 50-60 million euros. Plettenberg believes it is possible that the two clubs will agree on almost 70 million euros. In all likelihood, Bayern will officially submit their offer to Juve next weekend.
According to “BILD” information, de Ligt is also pushing for a quick move to Munich. Accordingly, Rafaela Pimenta, the Dutchman’s new advisor, will travel to Turin to personally make a clear wish to Juventus that de Ligt only wants to go to Bayern.
Chelsea FC has also recently been closely associated with the defender. The English are currently negotiating neither with Juve nor with the player side, since de Ligt only wants to go to Bayern.
