Manchester United head coach Erik ten Hag refused to confirm whether his club were close to signing Bayern Munich duo Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui when questioned in the aftermath of the Community Shield.
In the hours leading up to the clash with Manchester City, the Red Devils are said to have come to an agreement with Bayern over the double signing of De Ligt and Mazraoui.
Ten Hag was asked for an update after his side’s penalty-shootout loss to Man City at Wembley Stadium, but the Dutchman refused to confirm whether a deal had been agreed.
