Manchester United are reportedly in transfer talks over Ajax defender Jurrien Timber as Erik ten Hag looks to raid the Eredivisie giants.
Ten Hag is about to leave Ajax to take over as Man Utd manager, and it looks like he has Timber in his sights as one of his first signings.
According to the Daily Mirror, negotiations are already underway for the Red Devils to sign the £35million-rated youngster, with the piece also quoting Ten Hag as admitting he expected plenty of top clubs to show an interest in the player this summer.
“I think all the top clubs in Europe have Timber in their sights. But I think that applies to a lot of Ajax players at the moment,” he said.
