Manchester United open to double transfer if they can sell two players

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Noussair Mazraoui is one of the right backs of interest to Manchester United should they sell Aaron Wan-Bissaka. United want to jettison Wan-Bissaka, 26, as he is out of contract next year and Bayern Munich are looking to offload Mazraoui.

The 26 year-old played under Erik ten Hag at Ajax before joining Bayern two years ago. He was a regular for Morocco during their run to the semi-finals of the 2022 World Cup and has a value between €20million-€25m.

Ten Hag has a penchant for targeting players who played for him at Ajax or in the Eredivisie and United could still proceed with a move for Bayern defender Matthijs de Ligt, who captained Ajax under Ten Hag.

I wanted to sign him two years ago but at that time, he was already very far along to join Bayern Munich," he said. "But, believe it or not, his name did not come from me in the process (of shortlisting targets).” Sofyan Amrabat became the first Moroccan to play for United last year even though former football director John Murtough was unconvinced about pursuing a player on the back of their performances at an international tournament.
