Manchester United are closing in on Bayern Munich pair Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui in a move likely to cost in excess of £50m.
BBC Sport has been told Bayern have accepted a bid from United of £38.6m plus £4.3m in add-ons for De Ligt, who was captain of Erik ten Hag’s Ajax side that reached the Champions League semi-final in 2019.
In addition, they are set to pay £12.9m for 26-year-old Morocco defender Mazraoui.
United have targeted central defence and right-back as key areas to strengthen in Erik ten Hag’s squad.
Ten Hag said last weekend the club’s new hierarchy were "eager" to do deals.
Mazraoui’s arrival had been linked to the exit of right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka, who moved to Old Trafford from Crystal Palace for £50m in 2019.
The Red Devils have now agreed a deal with West Ham for Wan-Bissaka and the 26-year-old will have a medical with the Hammers on Sunday.
