Ajax defender Jurrien Timber has been spotted walking on Wembley Way ahead of this afternoon's FA Cup final between Manchester United and Manchester City having been previously linked with a move to United.

The 21-year-old played under Red Devils manager Erik ten Hag at Ajax and speculation regarding a move to Old Trafford for the Dutchman has arisen repeatedly.

Having not ruled out a summer exit, the centre-back, who can also play at right-back, is expected to leave Amsterdam this summer with United a highly possible destination.

However, having been spotted at Wembley, supporters are now starting to discuss whether this is a sign that the Netherlands international will join United this summer.

One fan tweeted: "He's coming to United" whilst another wrote, "He wants to watch his future team."

A third said: "Love it. Hopefully he can have a chat with Erik with a fourth adding: "He's been dreaming of being a red for a whole year now."

However, the image has also created speculation that the defender's attendance could also mean a move to City is on the cards, with one user tweeting: "Winner gets Timber" with another posting: "Wants to join City so badly."

This afternoon's FA Cup final is the first time the world's oldest cup competition has seen a Manchester Derby final with both sides already winning silverware this season.

Ten Hag can wrap up what has already been a successful maiden campaign in England with a second trophy after winning the League Cup in February, the Red Devils' first trophy in nearly six years. They also secured a return to the Champions League for next season after finishing third in the Premier League

As for City, manager Pep Guardiola will be targeting a famous treble with the Cityzens on course to win their first ever Champions League title next weekend when they play Inter Milan in the final in Istanbul, having already lifted the Premier League title for a third consecutive season.
