Man United Table £236,000-per-week for De Ligt to Lure Him

Manchester United have offered Matthijs de Ligt a massive £236,000-per-week, to move to Old Trafford this summer, Sport reports.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is in need of a central defender and the Ajax captain fits the bill.

United have now offered him £12.3million-a-year, in an attempt to gazump the queue of top European clubs chasing the 19-year-old.

Barcelona had been front-runners to sign de Ligt after his close friend and team-mate Frenkie de Jong agreed a move in January.

But the Spanish giants are aware that they will not be able to match the wages United are willing to pay.

De Ligt is set to leave Holland, after leading Ajax to the domestic double.
