Matthijs de Ligt is willing to test out the waters this summer before agreeing to a move to either Manchester United and Barcelona.
Both sides are leading the race for the star Ajax defender but have not been able to finalise a deal yet. The Eredivisie champions have already announced de Ligt’s departure this summer through their manager, Erik Ten Haag.
The 19-year-old is one of the hottest prospects in Europe right now. He established himself as an outstanding talent through Ajax’s impressive run to the semi-finals of the Champions League.
De Ligt is projected to be a star and questions are being raised over how much he is worth right now. His teammate, Frenkie de Jong completed a £66m move to Barcelona in January and will be joining the La Liga outfit in July.
“Where do I see myself? Well, obviously the Premier League is a big competition, Spain also,” De Ligt told reporters from a Netherlands training camp. “But you have other competitions, it’s not just about those two.
“I still don’t know anything about where my future is, so I’ll see how it goes. First, we have to play two games and then after that, I will see what happens next.”
