Manchester United fans have reasons to be excited as Noussair Mazraoui has expressed his desire to join the club. The Moroccan defender, currently contracted until June 2029 with an option for an additional season, is keen on the move. However, his transfer to United is contingent on Aaron Wan-Bissaka’s departure.
Wan-Bissaka, a mainstay in United’s defense, is reportedly being courted by West Ham United. Should the deal go through, it would clear the path for Mazraoui’s arrival at Old Trafford.
De Ligt Agrees to Personal Terms
In a parallel development, Matthijs de Ligt has also set his sights on a move to Manchester United. The Dutch defender agreed to personal terms with the club in June and has since been awaiting United’s final move.
De Ligt, who is currently with Bayern Munich, is not engaging in talks with any other clubs, signaling his commitment to joining the Red Devils. Bayern has set a €50 million price tag for the defender, but Manchester United is looking to negotiate a lower fee, possibly incorporating add-ons as part of the deal.
Manchester United’s pursuit of Noussair Mazraoui and Matthijs de Ligt highlights the club’s ambition to strengthen its defensive lineup. Mazraoui’s transfer is dependent on Wan-Bissaka’s exit, with West Ham being a potential destination for the English right-back. Meanwhile, de Ligt’s agreement on personal terms with United shows his eagerness to join the club, though negotiations over his transfer fee are ongoing.
As the transfer window progresses, Manchester United fans will be eagerly watching these developments, hoping to see both Mazraoui and de Ligt don the iconic red jersey.
