It is becoming increasingly certain that De Ligt will not be seen in the black and white jersey of the Turin club for a long time.
The negotiations between Juventus and De Ligt regarding the extension of cooperation were not the most successful. The former Ajax player has agreed to cooperate with the Bianconeri until 2024, but it is clear that the Italians will cash in on him this summer.
Until the beginning of the week, it appeared that Chelsea had the best chance of bringing him in.As of today, the “blues” are not favorites; that role belongs to Bayern Munich.
This morning we mentioned the Bavarians. During the day the German media “announced” Apparently, the desire of the defender himself is to move up to the ranks of the champions of Germany.
German and Dutch journalists say that De Ligt has supported the Bavarians since he was a child. Bayern have reportedly been following him since 2019, but the Bianconeri were more specific in their negotiations with Raiola and Ajax.
Bayern tried to reduce Juventus’ demands by including Pavar in the transfer, but the Italian club only wanted the money. And not under 100 million euros. Nor will they grant a pardon to Hasan Salihamidzic, who wore the jersey of the club from Turin for years and now serves as the sports director of the club from Munich.
Bayern wants to highlight the Dutchman’s “emotional side” and his devotion to the club. That is, they do not want a “bidding war” with Chelsea and other rich Premier League players.
