Ian Wright has said on Premier League Productions that reported Everton target Donny van de Beek should leave Manchester United.

The Arsenal legend believes that Van de Beek is a fantastic player who needs to leave United to revive his career.

The Netherlands international has been strongly linked with Everton.

Everton Director of Football, Marcel Brands, said this month that the Toffees wanted to sign the 24-year-old midfielder in the summer of 2021.

According to Corriere dello Sport (print edition, page 19, October 8, 2021), Everton remain interested in the Dutchman, with Juventus also keen.

Wright said: “He has got to get out of there because it’s not going to work for him at Man United.

“He is not going to get the opportunity to play, and he is somebody that should be playing. He is a fantastic player.”

Leaving Manchester United for Everton?

Van de Beek has been a peripheral figure at United, and it is really hard to see how he is going to get a decent amount of playing time at Old Trafford.

The 24-year-old has made only 20 appearances in the Premier League for the Red Devils so far in his career, scoring one goal in the process.

If Everton are interested in Van de Beek, then it would make sense for the midfielder to make the switch to the Merseyside club.

If United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is not planning to use Van de Beek much, then it would be better for the player to just leave.
