MU Backs out in the Hunt for De Ligt because of Barcelona’s Deception

DBasia.news –   The reason behind the failure of Manchester United to get Matthijs De Ligt is finally revealed. The Red Devils swallowed whole Barcelona’s deception, and backed away slowly in the hunt for De Ligt.

Only 19 years old, De Ligt is the hottest asset in the transfer market this summer.

PSG offered a better salary than Barcelona’s offer, and Barca were having difficulty to equalize as they were certain to bring in Frenkie de Jong and Antoine Griezmann. PSG sporting director, Leonardo, admitted his club had no money to bring in De Ligt.

De Ligt’s transfer is increasingly complicated because of Barca’s game. As always, as a big club, Barca are confident in hunting down any player. Barca was more than able to fulfill De Ligt’s request.

This condition has made MU back down slowly. They believe De Ligt will join Barcelona, ​​and therefore would stop hunting down the Dutch defender.

MU have negotiated with De Ligt and his agent, Mino Raiola. However, MU’s leadership backed down slowly as he did not want to be played by Raiola, who had a cold relationship with MU.

This situation was utilized by Juventus. Although it was too late to hunt De Ligt, Juve finally managed to become the winner.
