United to offer Ajax £1 millionManchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson is ready to offer Ajax £1 million for midfielder Nigel de Jong.
The Sunday Express says United will lodge the bid next month as they seek to ward off a host of rivals for the young Dutchman.
De Jong is off contract in the summer and can commit to a pre-contract with a rival club from January 1.
United are banking on Ajax wanting to make a healthy profit on the youngster by selling him during the winter transfer window.
