Manchester United Transfer News: The Red Devils are still keen on the Dutch defender Jurrien Timber, and Erik ten Hag may make another offer

Manchester United Transfer News: 90min reports that Manchester United is interested in signing Jurrien Timber. Erik ten Hag would welcome a reunion with his former team. As early as the previous summer, the Red Devils had their sights set on the Dutch defender. The pursuit has stalled, but action may materialize at the next available opportunity. When Erik ten Hag signed with Manchester United last summer, he brought with him a wealth of new ideas. After finishing in sixth place the previous season, the Dutch manager was looking to make some changes, including adding players he believed would help the club.

To a significant extent, Ten Hag has been successful in securing his primary objectives. Tyrell Malacia, Lisandro Martinez, and Antony were among them. Christian Eriksen and Casemiro’s transfers helped stabilize their midfield. The management failed to sign Jurrien Timber, a top-tier talent.

Ten Hag may have prioritized acquiring Timber over signing Martinez. Supposedly, Louis van Gaal, manager of the Netherlands, requested the Dutch defender to remain at Ajax and keep playing frequently before the World Cup.

Manchester United Transfer News: What’s the matter?

That’s why Timber never really left Amsterdam, but he could alter his mind come the summer. The Netherlands defender has aspirations of playing for a major league team. Ten Hag still sees the 21-year-old’s abilities as a major asset for Manchester United, which is why the club has maintained an interest in him.

Several of Manchester United’s current players have had their futures called into question. Thus opening the door for the club to add a top central defence this summer. It’s possible that, along with Harry Maguire, Victor Lindelof will also be leaving the team this summer.

If Manchester United receives a sufficient offer from another club, they may decide to sell Maguire. Some progress has been attributed to West Ham United. Yet, the chase of the England player may get entangled. Timber is the perfect candidate for Ten Hag’s search for a multi-talented star to join his team.

What’s next for Jurrien Timber?

According to reports, the Dutch defender has requested that his agents investigate a significant summer transfer. Experts estimate that Timber is worth about €45 million. But Ajax might demand more money by comparing his worth to Manchester United’s Martinez purchase.

Timber has expertise in both the centre and on the right side of the defence, so he could play any role. Ten Hag, who is considering trading Aaron Wan-Bissaka in the next period, may find this information very helpful. There are no solidified ties to the Dutch defender at this time. Ten Hag loves the concept of his former player, so that might alter in the near future.
