Dimitar Berbatov has hit the nail on the head by declaring Donny van de Beek will be able to play with "freedom" when he reunites with Erik ten Hag at Manchester United.
Van de Beek, 25, is yet to hit his stride at Old Trafford since his £35million arrival nearly two years ago and is spending the second half of this season on loan at Everton. However, he was handed a major boost earlier in April as United announced Ten Hag would take over this summer as their next permanent manager.
The two Dutchmen combined to fantastic effect at Ajax for two-and-a-half seasons, winning the Eredivisie-Dutch Cup double in 2019 while also reaching the Champions League semi-finals that year. Many fans suspect Ten Hag's arrival could be the catalyst for Van de Beek to rediscover the majestic performances he produced week in, week out for the Amsterdam giants.
