Eintracht Frankfurt are ready to approach Manchester United for midfield outcast Donny van de Beek, who wants regular football.
According to 90 Min, Eintracht Frankfurt have entered the chase for Donny van de Beek ahead of January. The 26-year-old Manchester United outcast is ready to leave the club and seek more game time elsewhere if his situation stays the same between now and next month.
Donny van de Beek increasingly looks like a failed signing for Manchester United, who paid a £35 million initial fee for the Dutchman. He has not proved his worth and certainly not lived up to expectations at Old Trafford, as he is nearing the end of his time at the club.
A host of clubs had held an interest in the summer, but Van de Beek might have chosen to stay and fight for his place. The Dutchman has featured for just 21 minutes of Premier League action, and now the club are ready to ship out the 26-year-old next month.
Real Sociedad held an interest in the summer, and are rumoured to chase the. 26-year-old Manchester United outcast again. However, there are more sides in the mix, with Newcastle United reportedly looking at him a while ago, but also have Crystal Palace and Fulham for company.
Juventus also had links, as they reportedly planned a double raid for him and Jadon Sancho. With the latter reportedly out of the equation for the Bianconeri, the talk of a move for the former has also cooled down. Some reports suggested Van de Beek offered himself to Barcelona, as it’s a story that might resurface later in the month.
Now, Eintracht Frankfurt have entered the chase as they plot a loan move for the Dutchman. The former Europa League champions are eager to find a way to sign the 26-year-old Manchester United outcast, with a need to reinforce their midfield with the best possible option both from the sporting and financial sides.
A move to the German side might appear to Van de Beek, who remains desperate to play regular football in the second half of the season. Manchester United might look for ways to offload the Dutchman permanently, but teams might show caution in investing substantially in the player.
