Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag is ready to bring Jurrien Timber with him from Ajax.
Timber could make the move to the Prem with his current Ajax boss next season, according to Sky Deustchland.
Bayern Munich have also been linked with the 20-year-old.
But Florian Plettenberg, a correspondent for the German giants, tweeted an update which is good news for Red Devils fans.
He said: "Bayern inquired about him but it is said the 20 year-old could join Ten Hag at Manchester United.
"Talks with his management have taken place and Manchester United is seriously interested."
Ten Hag has joined United on a three-year deal with the option of one more and will take the reigns for next season.
And after leading Ajax to a third Eredivisie title in as many years he was asked about Timber's future.
He told De Telegraaf: "I think all top clubs in Europe have Timber in their sights.
"But I think that currently applies to a lot of Ajax players."
