Sharing is Caring

Ajax manager Eric ten Hag hopes to retain star midfielder Donny van de Beek amid links to Manchester United and Real Madrid.

Real Madrid contacted Ajax at the start of the current campaign over the possibility of signing him.

The 22-year old Holland International has also emerged as a target for Premier League side Manchester United.

Ten Hag was asked about Van de Beek’s future ahead of Ajax’s Europa League clash with Getafe in Madrid.

‘’I do not think so[that he will leave], ‘’Ten Hag told reporters.

‘’He has had a great evolution and has attracted international attention. There are players who are on the spotlight and then things change. Donny van de Beek has had a stormy progression the last months. A lot of clubs noticed this.

‘’That has been the last one and half years like this with our players. We have not to think about this with our players. We have not to think about this, but we have been doing these the last one and a half years already.’’

Last season Van de Beek scored 10 goals in all competitions for Ajax – eight of those in the Eredivisie.
