Bayern Munich are reportedly ready to offer up to €90m, including add-ons, to sign Juventus defender Matthijs de Ligt.
The Dutch centre-back is expected to leave the Allianz Stadium in the summer despite a contract until 2024. He has a €120m release clause, but Juventus are open to selling for a lower fee.
The Bavarians have been monitoring De Ligt for several years and were in talks with him in 2019 before he eventually joined the Serie A giants.
According to Goal.com’s Romeo Agresti, there have been new contacts between the clubs’ directors today and Bayern will soon call Juventus again with an offer of €75m plus €10-15m add-ons.
De Ligt is willing to leave the Allianz Stadium, as suggested by Juventus’ CEO Maurizio Arrivabene last week.
The Bianconeri have turned down Chelsea’s €40m bid plus Timo Werner or Christian Pulisic, insisting that they want only cash for their star defender.
De Ligt joined Juventus in an €85.5m deal from Ajax in 2019 and has played 117 games in Turin.
