Bayern Munich Reach Agreement With Juventus For The Transfer Of Matthijs de Ligt..

 Matthijs de Ligt, a defender for Juventus who Chelsea had been interested in this summer, has reached a personal agreement with Bayern Munich.

De Ligt has been the focus of numerous transfer rumors, and  transfer analyst Fabrizio Romano has chronicled the entire saga. Romano confirmed to CaughtOffside that Chelsea did have an interest in De Ligt, with Thomas Tuchel hoping to acquire defensive reinforcements this summer.

The Dutch defender, who frequently plays in a back three for his nation, would have slotted in nicely in the Chelsea defensive.

De Ligt's situation has now received a new update from Romano, and it's not good for those who hoped to see the defender play for Stamford Bridge.

According to reports, Bayern and De Ligt have reached an agreement on personal terms for a five-year contract, and negotiations between the German club and Juventus are nearing their conclusion.

De Ligt has played senior football for seven seasons, although he is still a very young defender. He is still developing at the age of 22, so if Bayern Munich can tap into his enormous potential, it may be good business.
