Hasan Salihamidzic personally submitted the first Bayern offer for Matthijs de Ligt in Turin yesterday, Monday. According to consistent media reports, the two clubs are still apart when it comes to the fee. The Munich might already improve their offer today.
As several German and Italian media reported on Monday evening, the first Bayern offer is said to have consisted of a fixed amount of 60 million euros plus 5 million euros in easy and 5 million euros in bonus payments that were more difficult to achieve. In total, there are 70 million euros in the room. Not enough from Juve’s point of view. The Italians have set their financial pain threshold for De Ligt at €80m with a clear aim of keeping variable payments as low as possible.
Both clubs are pushing for a quick agreement

Bayern sports director Hasan Salihamidzic was very cautious following the first round in the transfer game with Juve: “We were there and talked. Now let’s see what happens. It’s always important to talk. Now we have to see what comes out of it!”
According to reports, both clubs are pushing for a quick agreement. Munich would like to take de Ligt on their US tour (July 18th to 24th) next week. But the deal would have to go through in the coming days.
As Juve insider Mirko Di Natale reports, Bayern will improve their offer for the Dutchman today. According to Di Natale, the two clubs are in constant contact. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has confirmed this message. Accordingly, the Munich are already preparing a new offer for the defender.
