Manchester United have agreed a deal to sign Matthijs de Light from Bayern Munich.
The move will be worth €50m (£42.9m), with an initial €45m (£38.6m) plus €5m (£4.3m) in add-ons.
The transfer is subject to De Ligt passing a medical, with personal terms not expected to be a problem.
He would need to be registered by midday on Thursday to be available for Manchester United’s opening Premier League match against Fulham on Friday.
In a separate deal, United have agreed many of the details of a deal for Bayern Munich’s right-back Noussair Mazraoui.
They are expected to proceed with that move once Aaron Wan-Bissaka’s transfer to West Ham has been completed.
