De Ligt is keen to work with his old Ajax boss Ten Hag at Old Trafford.
After taking over at Ajax in 2018, Ten Hag made De Ligt the club’s youngest-ever captain as they went on to win both the Eredivisie and the KNVB Cup in the 2018-19 season.
They also reached the semi-finals of the Champions League in the same campaign.
De Ligt joined Juventus that summer for £65.6m, before joining Bayern Munich three years later for a reported £68m.
United are ready to offer De Ligt, 24, a five-year contract if they can strike a deal with Bayern Munich.
The Red Devils will be looking to play De Ligt on the right side of central defence should he join the club.
