Matthijs de Ligt transfer to Manchester United boosted as Bayern Munich’s deal for Jonathan Tah hits snag – Latest Man United News and Transfer Updates

Bayer Leverkusen slap €40m price tag on Jonathan Tah amidst Manchester United interest - Man United News And Transfer News



Jonathan Tah’s proposed transfer to Bayern Munich is now uncertain.

According to German outlet BILD, the deal has hit significant roadblocks, casting doubt over the defender’s future.

Tah, who joined Bayer Leverkusen from Hamburger SV in 2015, has grown into one of the Bundesliga’s top defenders.

However, his dream move to Bayern Munich is now in jeopardy.

The two clubs have not reached an agreement, and without a quick resolution, Tah will rejoin Leverkusen’s squad for the upcoming season.

Bayern, facing internal budget constraints, are hesitant to meet Leverkusen’s demands, especially given Uli Hoeneß’s recent comments about the club’s need to offload players before making new signings.

From a Manchester United perspective, this situation is intriguing. Bayern’s struggle to secure Tah could indirectly affect United’s transfer plans.

Bayern’s hesitation to meet Leverkusen’s €40 million valuation for Tah means they need to offload a defender before making any significant purchases.

Matthijs de Ligt, who has been linked with a move to United, is the most likely candidate to be sold.

If Bayern can’t secure Tah, they may not need to sell De Ligt, but the uncertainty might push them to finalise his transfer to United to free up funds for future deals.

The Red Devils can use this scenario to their advantage by monitoring Bayern’s actions and potentially negotiating a more favourable deal for the Dutch centre back, knowing that Bayern is under pressure to balance their squad and finances.

De Ligt brings experience, leadership, and versatility, which would be invaluable for Erik ten Hag’s plans.

Moreover, Leverkusen’s reluctance to sell Tah without a substantial fee might influence their own defensive strategies, potentially keeping Piero Hincapié in the mix.

United, always on the lookout for emerging talents, could see this as an opportunity to monitor Hincapié’s situation, especially if the Ecuadorian becomes available due to Tah staying put.

Staying vigilant and adaptable in such situations is key to capitalizing on opportunities that can arise from transfer stalemates involving rival clubs.
