Manchester United will not entertain any offers for Donny van de Beek because Erik ten Hag remains convinced that he can turn around his poor form.
Van de Beek’s time at United is yet to take off following his £35million transfer from Ajax in September 2020. But the arrival of Ten Hag – the manager he flourished under in the Netherlands – offers hope for an upturn and United are therefore resisting any interest in the midfielder.
Ajax have made a tentative approach for a season-long loan, but The Sun says United reacted by saying there was no chance of them letting Van de Beek leave. The Dutch champions could not afford to pay his £100,000-a-week wages anyway and would have asked United to subsidise a move.
