Bayern Munich pair Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui are both on their way for medicals before completing their respective moves to Manchester United.

The pair will link up with Erik ten Hag's squad ahead of the new season, with Aaron Wan-Bissaka also having a medical today before completing his move to West Ham.

Ten Hag wanted to reinforce his defence, which suffered such acute injury problems last season.

He still didn't have Luke Shaw or Tyrrell Malacia available for the Community Shield and ended up with Facundo Pellistri, an attacking player for Uruguay, marking Bernardo Silva for Manchester City's late equaliser at Wembley.

Ten Hag said on Saturday that United would make an announcement when they had something to say. I don't think we are too far away.
