De Boer urges De Ligt to choose Barcelona – or Man City

Former Barcelona midfielder Ronald de Boer says Ajax defender Matthijs de Ligt should move to the Nou Camp.

De Ligt is being linked with PSG and Manchester United.

But De Boer, who coaches at Ajax, says: “[De Ligt] is a player who can play for any team and for me it would be better to see him playing at Barcelona, because they are a club with the same philosophy as Ajax.

“He started at Ajax as a 10-year-old and he has a philosophy and a way of playing which is very close to that of Barcelona

“He wouldn’t need to adapt, and he would be ready to play.

“People see him with a ball, but without the ball he is also very good

“[PSG] are a very good team with great players, but they a team that don’t play like [De Ligt] is used to.

“It’s different and philosophy is important, and if you ask me I’d prefer to see him at Barcelona or Manchester City.”
