Bayern Munich are reportedly one step closer to straightening their squad ahead of 2022/23 season, with a news defender, Newspremises understands.
The Bundesliga Champions are on the verge of signing experienced defender, Matthijs de Ligt from Juventus.
As reported by Football Italia, the German club have agreed on personal times with the Dutch international. All that is needed now is for Juventus and Bayern to agree on a fee for his services.
Both clubs were locked in negotiations all through Sunday and have now agreed a transfer worth €80million.
This claim was made by trusted football expert, Fabrizio Romano in a tweet on Monday, July 18, 2022.
De Ligt joined Juventus in 2019 from Ajax and has helped the Italian side win the Italian Serie A title, the Coppa Italia, and the Supercoppa.
His impressive performances for the club also attracted interest from Chelsea in the English Premier League but the defender looks set to play his football in Germany next season.
Tuchel had lost Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen as free agents, but has only brought in Kalidou Koulibaly from Napoli so far.
