"M.U accepts losing Ten Hag's favorite."
Once regarded as one of the best midfielders in Europe, Donny Van de Beek's career quickly deteriorated after arriving at Old Trafford.
He couldn't compete for a starting spot with Bruno Fernandes, and despite his efforts to prove himself during his loan spell at Everton, his performances as a Dutch playmaker were not convincing enough.This season, he continued to be relegated to the bench before moving to Eintracht Frankfurt in January.
Van De Beek was initially given plenty of opportunities, but with the former Ajax player consistently disappointing, he gradually lost his place in the club's starting lineup in the Bundesliga. Many sources affirm that Frankfurt will not activate the buyout clause for Van de Beek, which means Manchester United will miss the chance to offload the Dutch midfielder from Old Trafford.
According to journalist Dean Jones, the Red Devils might even terminate Van de Beek's contract and accept losing him for free this summer to free up wage budget. They believe it will be difficult to sell the former Ajax star when he hasn't shown much on the pitch.
