Ajax boss Erik ten Hag has reportedly identified his current defender Jurrien Timber as a potential transfer target should he move to Manchester United.
If reports are to be believed, Ten Hag is one of the frontrunners to become the new manager of United at the end of the season, replacing interim manager Ralf Rangnick.
The current incumbent has already acknowledged that United require an overhaul of their squad during the summer, and it appears that Ten Hag would look to bring in a familiar face.
As mentioned on the De Telegraaf Podcast, Ten Hag would ask United officials to attempt to strike a deal with Ajax for Timber.
The 20-year-old, who can play at right-back or centre-back, has made 33 appearances in the Eredivisie and the Champions League during the current campaign.
The Netherlands international has just over two years remaining on his contract with the Dutch giants.
