In central defense, Thomas Tuchel usually relies on Dayot Upamecano and Min-jae Kim. This displeases the two’s competitors.
Matthijs de Ligt was able to leave FC Bayern Munich after the end of the season. As “Sky” reports, the German record champions are said to be ready to let the central defender go after two years and despite a contract that runs until 2027.
Accordingly, the Bayern bosses were informed about the 24-year-old’s thoughts of changing, who is said to be dissatisfied with his situation. It was said that the club would be open to a transfer if there was a suitable offer for the defender.
Possible successor already in sight
De Ligt came to Säbener Straße in 2022 as Juventus Turin’s dream player, the transfer fee was 67 million euros. According to Sky, Premier League club Manchester United is watching de Ligt.
De Ligt is fighting for a place in central defense at FC Bayern with the South Korean Min-jae Kim and the French Dayot Upamecano. The Munich team is also said to be interested in Ronald Araújo from FC Barcelona. De Ligt is repeatedly slowed down by injuries. This season, the defender has only played two Bundesliga games lasting 90 minutes.
