Man Utd outcast set for Old Trafford return as decision made on future
Donny van de Beek looks set to return to Manchester United at the end of the season following his loan spell at Eintracht Frankfurt. United forked out £40million to sign Van de Beek from Ajax in 2020 after he starred for the Dutch giants as they reached the semi-finals of the Champions League the previous year. However, he has failed to make an impact at Old Trafford and is now in his second loan spell away from the club. Having made just four starts for United in the last two years, Van de Beek joined Frankfurt on loan in January in a bid to get some game time and rediscover his form. The deal also included an option to buy, but Bild are now reporting that Frankfurt have no plans to make the move permanent. The 26-year-old has made six appearances for the Bundesliga side and was left out of their Europa Conference League squad last month Watch the Premier League title race with the best Sky Sports deals Antony reveals Man Utd teammate who's been 'more than a friend' during difficult period "He's only played a total of four games in the last two years, so it won't happen overnight," head coach Dino Toppmoller said of the decision. "But I have 100 per cent confidence in his quality, he'll definitely help us in the second half of the season. "I told Donny that I was sorry but also what I expected from him now." Van de Beek also suffered the ignominy of being taken off in a game against Bochum where he had come on as a substitute in the first place. "Unfortunately, I had to replace Donny again," Toppmoller explained after the game. "This is because we knew he wouldn't be able to keep up the power for 70 minutes." Frankfurt are not planning to activate their option to buy Van de Beek ( Image: Getty Images) Speaking before his move to Frankfurt last November, Van de Beek admitted he was desperate to play regular Football again . ''I am bouncing to play matches again. The manager is making different choices now," he said. "We have a big squad and I am not the only one knocking on the door. We'll see in January what happens. I need to start playing games very soon - if not at Man United then at another club. I think I have to be ambitious. "I have always been a lover of the game. I am absolutely crazy about football. I earn a good living at United, but money is not my motivation. I want to enjoy my work every day." Join our new WhatsApp community and receive your daily dose of Mirror Football content.
