Old Ties Resurface

United’s current manager, Erik ten Hag, held the reins at Ajax in the previous summer, guiding the then 21-year-old Timber. Alas, the Dutch manager could not lure Timber to the Theatre of Dreams at Old Trafford, despite the young defender’s readiness to depart from the Eredivisie club.

Ajax Open to Negotiation

However, the winds seem to be shifting. According to The Mirror, Ajax is now willing to entertain offers for their talented defender. This situation has poised Manchester United for another attempt to secure Timber’s services, bolstering their star-studded line-up.

The Old Trafford Rebuild Continues

Ten Hag’s appointment at United heralded the commencement of a rebuilding phase, which already boasts a League Cup triumph. Notably, the Red Devils will feature in the prestigious Champions League next season.

Fans will be praying that United’s Saturday loss doesn’t dissuade Timber from envisioning his career’s next chapter in Manchester. Undoubtedly, the red side of Manchester yearns to welcome the prodigious defender.
