‘Matthijs de Ligt is going to Bayern and is very happy’ | Football

De Ligt arrived in Germany on Tuesday evening to complete his transfer. The 22-year-old defender has yet to undergo a medical examination.

De Ligt would make the switch from Juventus for a maximum of 80 million euros and sign a multi-year contract with Der Rekordmeister. In Turin, the Orange international won the national title once in three seasons, the Coppa Italia once and the Italian Super Cup once. Last year, Juventus finished fourth in Serie A, sixteen points behind national champions AC Milan.

De Ligt, who was bought from Ajax by Juventus for 75 million euros in 2019, will play together with Ryan Gravenberch and Noussair Mazraoui in Bavaria. The duo was picked up in Amsterdam earlier in the summer.

Sadio Mane

African top footballer Sadio Mane is considered Bayern’s other top purchase for the coming season. The Senegalese came over from Liverpool and must forget Robert Lewandowski who left for FC Barcelona in the attack. Bayern Munich have been champions of Germany for the last ten years. The club, led by trainer Julian Nagelsmann, last won the Champions League in 2020.
