Manchester United midfielder Donny van de Beek is talking to a number of clubs amid links with a move to Celtic.
Donny van de Beek is considering approaches from a number of clubs as he weighs up leaving Manchester United.
That is according to the Daily Mail, who claim that United are offloading a number of players.
Anthony Elanga has completed his move to Nottingham Forest with both Fred and Van de Beek now talking to other clubs.
United may be trying to offload a couple of midfielder in order to bring in competition for Casemiro and a new striker.
The time has come for Van de Beek to leave United, three years after arriving from Ajax in a deal worth £39million.
Van de Beek’s final season at Ajax saw him rack up 10 goals and 11 assists but he has managed only two goals and two assists in 60 United outings.
Even the appointment of Van de Beek’s former Ajax boss Erik ten Hag couldn’t get the 26-year-old back on track.
An exit seems to make sense for everybody and Van de Beek seems to agree as he weighs up offers.
Donny van de Beek to Celtic surely a pipe dream
90Min shared an update on Van de Beek’s future earlier in July, with a host of clubs thought to be interested.
They suggested that Crystal Palace, Nottingham Forest and Wolverhampton Wanderers have all shown an interest in Van de Beek.
The report even suggested that Celtic are interested in taking Van de Beek, just like Sevilla, Nice, Ajax and Feyenoord.
The Dutch international desperately needs to get his career back on track ahead of Euro 2024 and a move to Scotland could help him.
Van de Beek would surely thrive in the Scottish Premiership and give Brendan Rodgers another goalscoring midfield threat.
However, Van de Beek is understood to be earning around £108,000-a-week at United, a deal Celtic cannot get close to on a permanent deal.
Even a loan would require a hefty Celtic contribution and the numbers may be beyond the Bhoys.
A loan inside the Premier League to Everton didn’t work in 2022 and we can see Van de Beek heading into Europe in the hope of kickstarting his career again.
