Italian transfer guru Fabrizio Romano has revealed that Manchester United are keen on securing the services of both defenders in time for their Premier League opener against Fulham. Manager Erik ten Hag is eager to integrate them into the squad as soon as possible, having previously worked with them at Ajax.
“With the injury to Leny Yoro, we may see De Ligt rushed into the starting lineup alongside Lisandro Martinez,” Romano states. Meanwhile, Mazraoui is set to replace Aaron Wan-Bissaka, who is rumored to be close to a move to West Ham United.
In another development, a Manchester United target has refused to discuss a new contract amidst interest from the club. The saga continues as the transfer window heats up.
