A big move surely beckons soon for De Ligt, and Don Balon list Man Utd as one of his many suitors, which makes sense given their need to improve on their current centre-back options.

This is because Barcelona already have a lot of good options in that area, meaning it doesn’t make sense for it to be a priority for them in the transfer market.
