Manchester United star Donny van de Beek has reportedly offered his services to Barcelona in January amid claims that Erik ten Hag has lost 50 per cent of the dressing room. The wantaway midfielder had been linked with a move away from Old Trafford in the summer.<\/p>\n
Fenerbahce and Galatasaray were the favourites to snap him up ahead of this season but despite the Turkish transfer window running two weeks longer than England’s a deal couldn’t be struck. Van de Beek has only featured twice for United this season, once in the Premier League and once in the League Cup, while the Dutchman has made just 62 appearances across three and half seasons at the club.<\/p>\n
When Ole Gunnar Solksjaer signed Van de Beek from Ajax for \u00a340million in 2020 there was a great deal of excitement surrounding his arrival but he has since slipped further and further down the pecking order over the years.\u00a0<\/p>\n
According to\u00a0Spanish outlet\u00a0SPORT,\u00a0Van de Beek is now taking his future into his own hands by ‘offering himself’ to Barca. The La Liga outfit are in need of a midfielder after Gavi suffered a serious knee injury during the last international break that will rule him out of action for the rest of the 2023\/2024 campaign.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Van de Beek only has eighteen months remaining on his contract with the 13-time Premier League winners so would prove to be an affordable option for the cash-strapped Catalonians. The 26-year-old may not be the only one departing Old Trafford in the New Year though.<\/p>\n
A wave of exits are anticipated after reports emerged last week suggesting that Ten Hag has lost elements of the United dressing room. According to Sky Sports, half of United’s squad have turned against their manager due to his refusal to act on his players’ grievances.<\/p>\n
