Amid interest from the Premier League, Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona, Juve splashed £67million to take De Ligt to the Allianz Stadium on a long-term contract. Juve chiefs splashed out on De Ligt, 20, confident that he can lead the defence for the next decade. However, two games after the winter break, the 22 year-old suffered ruptured cruciate ligaments himself, gifting De Ligt his place back. His father-in-law, Keje Molenaar, has this week spoken out on De Ligt's position, insisting: “Matthijs doesn’t regret having chosen Juve at all. Thus, unless Juventus actively pursue his sale due to financial need, then a move won't be on the cards any time soon.
