Frenkie de Jong has made his feelings clear on teaming up with Netherlands international team-mate Matthijs de Ligt at club level, possibly with Manchester United

Frenkie de Jong could finally get his wish of playing alongside Matthijs de Ligt at club level, with both still on Manchester United's radar.

The pair have a history with Ten Hag from their Ajax days and were nearly united at Barcelona before De Ligt chose Juventus, eventually moving to Bayern in 2022. Reflecting on De Ligt's choice, De Jong commented in 2019: "He is still very young and is already like a star in Juventus. Of course, I would like to have played with him at Barcelona, but it was his decision.

But bringing in De Ligt and/or Everton's Jarrad Branthwaite would hinge on United's ability to balance the books and other transfer priorities in what is expected to be a busy summer as Ten Hag revamps his squad. Recently-installed sporting director Dan Ashworth said: "Leny is one of the most exciting young defenders in world football. He possesses every attribute needed to develop into a top-class centre-back. Having had such an excellent start to his career we are excited to support him in reaching his immense potential here at Manchester United."
