Man Utd flop Donny van de Beek wanted by old club Ajax in summer transfer return after disastrous £35m switch
AJAX are keen on bringing Donny van de Beek back to the club this summer according to reports.
The Dutch midfielder is currently sidelined for the remainder of the season with a knee injury picked up in January.
United paid a reported £35million for the 25 year old in the summer of 2020.
Football Insider have reported that Van de Beek is set to be one of the names to leave Old Trafford this summer as the Red Devils look to sell as many as eight players.
The report adds that former club Ajax would be interested in bringing him back to Holland.
United would be prepared to accept a bid of £25m to end his disappointing three-year spell at the club.
The former Ajax man has a contract until 2025 and is reportedly on £120,000 a week.
Van de Beek has made 10 appearances for United this season but has only started four of those games despite being re-united with his former boss Erik ten Hag.
Following limited game time in the first half of the 2021-2022 season the Dutchman went on loan to Everton but injury limited him to just seven appearances for the Toffees.
Van de Beek has played 34 times for United and scored twice for the club so far.

During his spell at Ajax, Van de Beek made 175 appearances, scoring 41 goals adding 34 assists and lifted the Eredivisie.
United are looking to strengthen their midfield options ahead of next season and a potential title charge and have continuously been linked with Barcelona’s Frenkie de Jong.
