Manchester United signed Eric Bailly from Villarreal last year and also splashed some cash to lure Victor Lindelof from Benfica during the past summer transfer window.
Jose Mourinho also have the likes of Phil Jones, Marcos Rojo, Chris Smalling and Daley Blind in his team, and all can handle the central defense role properly
So, we might feel there is no need for the Portuguese tactician to sign another central defender next year.
However, Ajax defender Matthijs de Ligt has been recently linked with a move to Manchester United ahead of the January transfer window.
It was made known that the Old Trafford club are one of the top European sides who have made an offer for the talented defender.
Matthijs, just 18-year-old, has evolved into a first-team regular at Ajax.
The Dutch player has played 20 times for Ajax this season so far and has scored two goals with one assist.
The report added that some other top European clubs are interested in getting his signature as well, since his impressive performances at the Netherlands club have caught the attention of many.
It was also said that the club won’t mind selling him next year, but will only allow him leave for a fee worth €50 Million.
Should Mourinho bring in a new central defender next summer? Should he spend a whopping €50M on a young teenager?
