Donny van de Beek facing uncertain future at Old Trafford

Despite Van de Beek's connection with Erik ten Hag, reports suggest United are willing to part ways with him.

The Sun reports that the Dutch international flourished under Ten Hag during their time together at Ajax, with the midfielder playing a vital role in the side that qualified for the Champions League semis in 2019.

However, he has struggled for form since his move to Old Trafford in 2020, with a loan move to Everton in the second half of last season not helping.

Milan, meanwhile, have slammed a £38million price tag on Bennacer, who is also wanted by Arsenal.

Nani pleads with Ronaldo not to quit Man United

Earlier, Sports Brief reported ex-Man United star Nani has asked Cristiano Ronaldo to consider staying at Old Trafford for one more season.

Nani revealed that he has been unsuccessful in his efforts to reach Ronaldo over the phone to discuss the matter.

Ronaldo is staring at an uncertain future with the Red Devils, with reports suggesting that the 37-year-old is keen to depart the club this summer.
