Arsenal £60m Star who called Ten Hag a ‘BABY COACH’ in training yesterday have been told by the management to find a new Club or risk ending His career now – Ten Hag doesn’t condone disrespect

Prominent football journalist Fabrizio Romano has today confirmed that Donny van de Beek has not travelled with the Manchester United squad to London because of transfer ‘negotiations’

The journalist put to rest earlier this week speculations about Manchester United’s Donny van de Beek rejoining one of his old clubs. However, another avenue for departure still stands.

Last season, Van de Beek would have been optimistic about rekindling his form at Manchester United, especially with the appointment of fellow Dutchman Erik ten Hag. Their successful spell together in the Eredivisie means the two are no strangers.

Nevertheless, the midfielder, aged 26, made only 10 appearances in total throughout the season. A combination of injuries and intense competition for slots in the squad played a part. Ten Hag had an abundance of talent to choose from, including the likes of Casemiro, Christian Eriksen, Fred, Scott McTominay, and Bruno Fernandes.

Now, with Van de Beek back in form, it’s still uncertain if he will have a significant role in United’s upcoming campaign. While there are rumours that United might part ways with Fred and McTominay, they’ve bolstered their squad by acquiring Mason Mount from Chelsea. Additionally, Ten Hag’s eyes seem set on adding another midfielder, possibly Sofyan Amrabat or Amadou Onana.

Interestingly, even Ten Hag appears hesitant to rely on Van de Beek. Hence, the Dutch international, capped 19 times, is on the lookout for a fresh start.

A recent piece from The Sun suggested that Ajax, Van de Beek’s former footballing club, might be contemplating a bid to bring the sidelined Manchester United player back home. For Van de Beek, such a move would be akin to a homecoming, offering him a platform to rediscover his magic. Plus, it would mean returning closer to his loved ones.

But, to Van de Beek’s disappointment, a transfer back to Ajax is off the table. Romano, taking to Twitter, clarified that there haven’t been any substantial discussions between the player and Ajax, countering prior rumours.

But, all hope isn’t lost for Van de Beek. His exit from Old Trafford might still materialise this transfer window and even more with being left of todays squad. The midfielder has reportedly agreed to a shift to La Liga side, Real Sociedad. The allure of Sociedad’s project, who secured a fourth-place finish in La Liga last season, seems to be a significant draw for him.

Negotiations between Manchester United and Sociedad are in progress. The likelihood is that Van de Beek will move to the Spanish club on a year-long loan, with an option to make the move permanent come summer 2024.

According to Romano’s most recent update, discussions between the clubs are ongoing and hopefully with not being in the squad in London, a transfer solution can be found between the clubs & player.

Deal At Completion: Man United receives a significant boost as £30 million target who scored 14 goals wants to join after receiving ‘tempting’ offer from United that he cannot refuse

An update on Manchester United’s pursuit of a prospective transfer target who happens to be similar to Jude Bellingham has just surfaced. The club is still looking to add depth to their extremely competitive group

Who is Man Utd. acquiring?

Journalist Alfredo Pedulla claims that Manchester United has enquired about Ryan Gravenberch of Bayern Munich.

In a post on social media, Pedulla said:

Manchester United always considers Amrabat, but in the interim, Gravenberch, who has two other Premier League ideas, has conducted an information survey.

The caliber of Ryan Gravenberch?

Since joining the Red Devils this summer, Erik ten Hag has proven his devotion to and belief in his fellow Ajax graduates by signing a number of them, including Antony, Lisandro Martinez, and Cristian Eriksen. Now, he may be about to start yet another reunion.

Under the guidance of Ten Hag, Gravenberch—once hailed as a “top talent” by football talent scout Jacek Kulig—made his breakthrough into the first team. This sparked intense interest across Europe when his electrifying performances and undeniable talents were regularly on display in the Eredivisie and on the European stage as well.

The talented midfielder then moved on to Bayern Munich to chase his dreams of winning major trophies, but unfortunately has found regular game time hard to come by with the Bundesliga giants, something that the player has had no problems speaking out about after his first campaign.

Coincidentally, Ten Hag has always had high admiration for Gravenberch and has mentioned the young player’s contribution to the squad while leading Ajax:

“Ryan is a very young player,” ten Hag said. But he has a lot of experience already. He has already appeared in more than 100 Eredivisie games, as well as matches for the national team and in the Champions League. Despite his youth, he has already gained a lot of experience and, most importantly, titles.

“He’s a box-to-box player, which is incredibly crucial for our team. He dribbles well, passes well, and contributes in the build-up play. He also accelerates out of positional play.

“Due to his athleticism and physique, he is also strong in the transition game and can also win the balls. He’s come a long way, but can still learn a lot.”

There is no doubt that Gravenberch is one of the hottest youth prospects across the top five European leagues – ranking in the top 25% of his positional peers for shots on goal, shot-creating actions, progressive carries, successful take-ons and progressive passes received per 90 minutes played, as per FBref.

Not only that, Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham is named as one of the most comparable players to Gravenberch over the last 12 months, with many similarities beyond their rapid development at such a young age.

When comparing the promising midfield duo, they came close in several key attributes including pass completion (87.4% v 81.7%), shot-creating actions per 90 (3.91 v 4.81), percentage of dribblers tackled (53.8% v 66.7%) and successful take-ons (57.9% v 57%). The two players, therefore, are bullish and progressive in nature.

In fact, Dutch legend Rafael van de Vaart once claimed that Gravenberch – who has a reported €25m (£22m) price tag – is actually better than Bellingham:

“I think Gravenberch is better than him, in every way. Especially physically.”

With that being said, the signing of Gravenberch would be a great piece of business for Man United as they continue to invest in Ten Hag’s vision and philosophy to get Man United back to dominating domestically and winning trophies regularly.
