Manchester United are in discussions with\u00a0Galatasaray over a loan move for Dutch midfielder Donny van de Beek as the player edges nearer to a departure.<\/p>\n
The out-of-favour star is set to leave Old Trafford as Erik ten Hag attempts to trim his squad of talents deemed surplus to requirements before the transfer window closes.<\/p>\n
Van de Beek has endured a torrid time in Manchester after completing a \u00a340m transfer from Ajax three years ago, where he arrived with a promising reputation at the time.<\/p>\n
Injuries, an unsuccessful loan move to Everton and failure to secure consistent first-team opportunities at United leaves the 26-year-old seeking an exit to reignite his career.<\/p>\n
Turkish side Galatasaray are keen to offer Van de Beek a route out of England and are in talks with United over brokering a loan move.<\/p>\n
