Donny van de Beek ‘asks for Real Madrid move
Manchester United outcast Donny van de Beek has reportedly instructed his agent to force through a move to Real Madrid.
The 24-year-old continues to struggle for game time under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer after starting just four Premier League games in his debut 2020-21 season.
Van de Beek has been restricted to just six minutes in the top flight so far this term, meanwhile, and a recent report claimed that he is ‘highly likely’ to head for the Old Trafford exit door next year.
Despite rumoured interest from Everton, Defensa Central claims that Van de Beek’s ‘dream’ is to play for Real Madrid, and the Dutchman has asked his agent to engineer a move to the Spanish capital.

The report adds that Van de Beek is confident of enjoying more game time at the Bernabeu with Isco and Dani Ceballos both being heavily linked with exits, although it will still be ‘difficult’ to force his way into Ancelotti’s plans given the arrival of Eduardo Camavinga.
Van de Beek boasts one goal and two assists in 39 games for United, who have the ex-Ajax man tied down until the summer of 2025.
