EKO HOT BLOG reports that Manchester United midfielder, Donny van de Beek has told Erik ten Hag that he ‘can do a lot better’ if offered the opportunity to play at Old Trafford next season.

Van de Beek joined Manchester United on a deal worth around £40million in 2020 after helping Erik ten Hag win the Dutch League and reach the Champions League semifinal.

Since moving to Old Trafford, the midfielder has struggled to make any possible impact in the Red Devils’ first team.
He has only played 27 league games for United in two whole seasons, the majority coming as a substitute. The Dutch star spent last season on loan to Everton.

Reports suggest that Van de Beek could be set for a summer transfer, but the player himself insists he can be useful to Erik Ten Hag in his first season with United.

“I can play as a 10, but also an 8,” Van de Beek told Manchester United media.
“One of my strengths is to come in the box, make a goal or give an assist, but I like to be on the ball as well. I have to play where the team needs me.
