According to recent reports, as many as 12 clubs in Europe are interested in signing Manchester United's Donny van de Beek.
The Dutch midfielder made the switch from Ajax in 2020 and has featured in only 48 games since then, starting just 19. But his stint with the Red Devils hasn't really paid dividends.
The 24-year-old struggled for game time under former gaffer Ole Gunnar Solskjær. He had hoped to find his name on the roster sheet more regularly after the appointment of Ralf Rangnick as interim manager in November 2021.
To his dismay, the Dutchman has only featured in six games and has started just once since the German gaffer's appointment.
