Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui spotted at Munich Airport as they fly to England to seal £60m Man Utd transfer
BAYERN MUNICH stars Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui are on their way to England ahead of their £60million double transfer to Manchester United.
The pair are Erik ten Hag's top targets following the £52m transfer of French defender Leny Yoro and earlier £34m arrival of Dutch striker Joshua Zirkzee.
And a mega-deal looks imminent after De Ligt and Mazraoui were spotted boarding a flight to the UK at Munich airport on Monday morning.
The two defenders were all-smiles as they rocked up in private cars to the tarmac.
De Ligt made his way into the terminal on his own, carrying a large rucksack and even bigger suitcase.
While Mazraoui opted for a personal bag as a minder wheeled a smaller case behind him.

United are expected to pay around £45m for centre-back De Ligt, with former Ajax teammate Mazraoui costing just £15m.
Both men are familiar with Ten Hag, having played under United's boss in the Dutch capital for several seasons.
The move will see them join fellow ex-Ajax stars Andre Onana, Antony and Lisandro Martinez at Old Trafford.
And with United struggling with several fitness worries at the back, De Ligt and Mazraoui could both be thrust into the starting XI for Friday's season opener against Fulham.

Fernandes had also hinted at quitting at leading United to FA Cup glory against Man City.
But in the wake of Saturday's Community Shield defeat to the champs on penalties, Fernandes is now set to commit his future under Ten Hag.
