Donny van de Beek has crossed out the name of an interested club. According to The Telegraph The Manchester United midfielder sees no point in an interim move to Newcastle United, the current number nineteen in the Premier League. Van de Beek, who does not get further than a single substitute, is said to have no appetite for relegation football, it sounds like from England. The relegation candidate from Newcastle was thinking of a rental deal for the Dutchman with Manchester United until the end of the season.

It is not known whether Newcastle, in danger of relegation, will make a second attempt to free Van de Beek from Manchester United, where his contract will run until mid-2025. The Magpies, who also failed to beat competitor Watford (1-1) on Saturday, did manage to add Kieran Trippier (Atlético Madrid) and Chris Wood (Burnley) to the selection earlier this transfer period. A total of more than forty million euros was deposited for the defender and attacker. Meanwhile, the low-flyer is hopeful that centre-back Diego Carlos can be taken over from Sevilla. A first offer has already been made in Spain.

Meanwhile, there is a lot of speculation in the various foreign media about the future of Van de Beek at club level. Manchester Evening News wrote on Thursday that Van de Beek would have been offered to Borussia Dortmund and Newcastle United. Transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano invalidated the contract about the Germans a day later; he could neither confirm nor deny the interest from Newcastle-upon-Tyne. Van de Beek has been playing at Old Trafford since September 2020 and has so far made 49 matches, in which he scored 2 times. This season, the counter stands at seven matches (one goal), with a total of 379 minutes played.

In any case, manager Ralf Rangnick wants Van de Beek to finish the season at Manchester United, he said in the run-up to Saturday’s game against Aston Villa (2-2). “I want Donny to stay,” said the German, who replaced the the Dutch international in Birmingham, on Friday. “I had a conversation with him two weeks ago and told him that I would advise him to stay until the end of the season. Van de Beek wants to go to the World Cup and Van Gaal has told him that he has to play regularly. I understand that, but We have a lot of competition in the squad.” The German also has a choice of Bruno Fernandes, Scott McTominay, Fred, Nemanja Matic and Jesse Lingard in midfield. Paul Pogba is currently recovering from a debilitating hamstring injury; It is still unclear when the Frenchman is expected back.
