Manchester United have strengthened their squad by signing Bayern Munich duo Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui in a deal that could total nearly £60 million. De Ligt has committed to a five-year contract, while Mazraoui has signed for four years, with both deals including an option for an additional year. Mazraoui is expected to step in at left-back for the injured Luke Shaw when United face Fulham in the Premier League on Friday. United agreed to pay £38.5 million plus £4.3 million in add-ons for De Ligt, the 25-year-old centre-back who previously captained Erik ten Hag's Ajax side during their 2019 Champions League run. Mazraoui, who also worked under Ten Hag at Ajax, joins for an initial fee of £12.8 million, with potential add-ons of £4.3 million.
