Bayern Munich duo Matthijs De Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui reportedly complete their medicals ahead of a £60m double move to Manchester United.
Manchester United have reportedly completed the medicals of Bayern Munich duo Matthijs De Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui ahead of transfers to the Premier League.
Following an eighth-placed finish in the Premier League last season, there were serious questions marks over whether Erik ten Hag would continue as the Red Devils’ head coach.
Beating local rivals Manchester City in the final of the FA Cup at Wembley Stadium, the Dutchman picked up his second piece of silverware in two years on the red side of the city.
That honour was enough for Ten Hag to keep his position at the Theatre of Dreams, where United have made a number of notable additions already this summer.
Netherlands international Joshua Zirkzee has been brought in from Bologna to provide support for Rasmus Hojlund, whilst Leny Yoro has arrived to partner Lisandro Martinez in defence.

De Ligt, Mazraoui ‘complete’ Man United medicals
According to transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano, Man United have moved even closer to their third and fourth signings of the summer window.
The report claims that both De Ligt and Mazraoui have successfully completed their medicals at the Red Devils’ Carrington training base on Monday.
It is understood that Man United will pay a combined total of £60m for the services of the Dutch centre-back and Morrocan full-back this summer.
The Bayern pair are now expected to officially put pen to paper on their deals at Old Trafford, where they will be hoping to be involved in a new era of success.
With all the documents to be sorted within the next 24 hours supposedly, both players will be available for Man United’s Premier League opener against Fulham on Friday night.

Double capture and outgoings at Man United
Representing quite unusual scenes in the early part of Monday morning, Bayern pair De Ligt and Mazraoui travelled in unison as they flew over to Manchester from Germany.
Following the rather-underwhelming signing of Sofyan Amrabat last summer, the Red Devils are making some serious waves during the off-season window this time around.
Despite failing to cement a regular spot at the Allianz Arena, De Ligt is a defender who possesses plenty of quality and knowledge of how Ten Hag likes to operate due to their time together at Ajax.
Two defensive incomings in a short space of time are set to allow Aaron Wan-Bissaka to complete a permanent switch to Premier League rivals West Ham United.
