"I think De Ligt fits perfectly with Manchester City," Bosz said. "Vincent Kompany is already gone and Nicolas Otamendi is not good enough. Then I would love to see him next to Aymeric Laporte."
"I think exactly the same," Van Gaal responded. "Although De Ligt can go to Barcelona too, because I don't like their central defenders either.
"He could play at Barcelona, but he could play for Manchester City also, and in that case I would choose Pep Guardiola over Lionel Messi."
Reports last week suggested De Ligt was set to make a decision on his future in the coming days. Though City are thought to be monitoring the situation, they have not been as heavily linked with a move for him as their local rivals. He is currently with the Dutch national side as they prepare to face England in the Uefa Nations League finals in Portugal later this week.Explore more on these topics:
