Manchester United has officially announced the transfer of Dutch defender Matthijs de Ligt from Bayern Munich.

The player has signed a five-year contract with the "Red Devils," with an option to extend for an additional year.

Here’s how the defender commented on his move and reunion with Erik ten Hag:

"Erik ten Hag shaped my career in its early stages, so he knows how to get the best out of me. I know what it takes to succeed at the highest level.

During my discussions with Manchester United, I was impressed by the vision laid out by the football management. I was also impressed by the role they have envisioned for me," de Ligt said.

It’s worth noting that Aaron Wan-Bissaka, the right-back from Manchester United, has joined West Ham United. The London club paid £15 million for his transfer.
