Manchester United need a solid defender at the back to be able to create more chances going forward." The Norwegian boss is expected to invest heavily in new recruits while the transfer market is open and Ajax's teenage centre-back De Ligt has been mooted as a possible target. The 19-year-old enjoyed a stellar 2018-19 campaign at the Johan Cruyff ArenA, helping Erik ten Hag's side win a domestic double while also reaching the semi-finals of the Champions League.Kleberson, who played for United between 2003 and 2005, has urged his ex-employers to fork out for De Ligt due to his unique "style of play". The Brazilian World Cup winner told betoclock.com: “In my opinion, Manchester United need to bring in Matthijs de Ligt, who would be a good player to join because of his style of play."With his passing, he is very comfortable on the ball and he reads the game well.

To drive and run with the ball, to find the perfect pass; this is difficult to do in the Premier League. "I played there for two years and I know how tough a league it is. He’s a very good player, but he is still to hit his top gear at Manchester United.”</blockquote>
