Fabrizio Romano, a football transfer expert on X official account this morning wrote: “Manchester United have green light from both Joshua Zirkzee and Matthijs de Ligt to join the club.
Romano added, “Both players have spoken to Erik ten Hag with Man United now ready to advance on the club side in the coming days.
“It’s all approved on salary/commission also for Zirkzee.”
