Inter are showing renewed interest in a January transfer for Manchester United midfielder Donny van de Beek, according to a report.
The Dutchman’s struggles have continued this season, following his tough debut season at Old Trafford. His United career got off to a flyer with a debut goal as a substitute, but he has struggled to maintain such momentum.
However, injuries have not proven a problem. Instead, Van de Beek has not enjoyed a sufficient run of games and starts.
Indeed, he has only played 51 minutes this term. Forty-five of those came in a Champions League start against Young Boys on Tuesday.
As such, reports have claimed that United will make Van de Beek available in the January transfer window to move on.
In fact, he is one seven players the Red Devils are supposedly willing to offload. They are subsequently eyeing up a deal for Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jude Bellingham.
According to Calciomercato, Inter are looking at Van de Beek as a potential January signing. The club’s CEO Giuseppe Marotta is considering an initial loan transfer with a purchase clause.
The Serie A champions had interest last January, but did not advance their negotiations.
Nevertheless, those contacts are still there. As such, Inter would not struggle to re-open talks with Van de Beek’s representatives.
For now, the Netherlands international will look to convince United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. He has two months in which to stake a claim for a starting role, but could move on if he fails with that task.
Calciomercato claims that the ‘ending seems already written’ for Van de Beek at Old Trafford.
