Man Utd consider signing De Ligt despite ruling him out in 2018 for being overweight

Manchester United want to turn their season around and that starts with strengthening their defence. The Red Devils are interested in Matthijs de Ligt, who is struggling at Bayern Munich.

The centre-back, who is currently injured, is not at his best at the moment. In fact, he has been annoyed that Bayern have been linked with the addition of Ronald Araujo to the squad.

According to the 'Daily Mail', Manchester United are interested in the services of the Dutch defender, who could look for a way out this January if reinforcements arrive to the Bavarian team.

The Red Devils were already able to sign De Ligt in 2018. At that time, the English side rejected his transfer due to fears that he could suffer from overweight problems.
