Matthijs de Ligt’s transfer from Ajax to Manchester United could be a done deal, according to Mundo Deportivo and Marca journalist Diego Martinez.
The reporter has tweeted the news just now, stating that an announcement will most likely be held up until after upcoming international games to generate hype over the deal.

Martinez has previously accurately tweeted about Alexis Sanchez joining Man Utd, so this could be exciting news for Red Devils supporters.
De Ligt is one of the most exciting talents in world football right now after a terrific season for Ajax, whom he captained to the Eredivisie title and a surprise run to the Champions League semi-finals.
The 19-year-old looks to have a great career ahead of him and would be absolutely ideal for United right now given their problems in defence.
ESPN previously also linked De Ligt with MUFC, but suggested the Premier League giants expected Barcelona to win the race for his signature.
United fans will now be hoping this can be made official as soon as possible, but at the moment it’s looking pretty promising for them in pursuit of what could be one of the signings of the summer.
