It is finally official: Both Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui have transferred clubs from Bayern Munich to Manchester United. In the official announcement of the transfer on Bayern Munich’s website, Director of Sport Max Eberl spoke briefly about the two, aiming to thank the players for their contribution to Bayern and summarize their time for the Bavarian giants.
It reads as follows: “FC Bayern thanks Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui for their successful time with the club. Matthijs is a player who always gives everything and leaves his heart on the pitch – fans will never forget his crucial sliding tackle in the Champions League knockout match against Paris Saint-Germain, among other things. Similarly, Nous was always a reliable performer during his two years here. We wish them both all the best for their future at Manchester United in the Premier League.”
Hopefully the duo’s future with Manchester United will be bright and prosperous.
