While numerous transfer fees have been circulating regarding a de Ligt change to FC Bayern in the past few days, it seems as if the 22-year-old central defender is cheaper than previously thought. As the Italian transfer insider Alfredo Pedulla revealed via Twitter on Sunday evening, “the old lady” is demanding 75-80 million euros as a fixed fee plus further bonus payments.
The pay TV broadcaster “Sky” recently reported that the first offer from Munich will amount to 50-60 million euros. The “Sky” expert Florian Plettenberg believes it is possible that the two clubs can agree on almost 70 million euros.
De Ligt himself waves a 5-year contract until 2027 on the Isar. Accordingly, the central defender should earn between 17-19 million euros per year in the future, which would make him one of the top earners on the Isar right away.
