Botman transfer discussed in Manchester United transfer summit
According to reports, the Ajax youth product’s transfer was brought up in a transfer summit that was held between the director of football at Manchester United John Murtough, the coaching team and new manager Erik ten Hag.
The reports claim that his transfer was discussed extensively because Manchester United are planning a defensive clearout ahead of the new season. Kalidou Koulibaly is one of their targets, and Botman could be their preferred third choice as they plan to pair the veteran Senegal defender with Raphael Varane next season while getting rid of Phil Jones and Harry Maguire and possibly Victor Lindelof.
United are also focused on midfield signings because there is going to be a dearth of talents in that area come June.
