Manchester United Star Suffers Injury Setback

Manchester United confirms that Dutch Midfielder Donny van de Beek has been ruled out for the rest of the season. Van de Beek came off the field following a tackle put in by Marco Senesi during United’s game against Bournemouth.

Van de Beek arrived at Old Trafford from Ajax in 2020 where he previously worked under current manager Eric Ten Hag. However, the Dutchman has failed to carry forward his form at Ajax. He has been average and failed to earn game time under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and is now under Ten Hag.

Donny van de Beek spent his formative years in Amsterdam where he was part of the 2019 dream Ajax team which saw all the golden talents getting poached by big clubs.

Last season, the midfielder spent a loan spell with Merseyside outfit Everton.

What did Ten Hag have to say?

While talking to the press, prior to the Manchester derby, Ten Hag confirmed Van de Beek’s 2022-2023 campaign has come to an end.

“Yes, it is his knee. In the long term it is looking really good, he will be back for the start of pre-season. But for the rest of the season, he is out. Our thoughts are with him, it is terrible when you are in a season and you get a bad tackle, bad injury, it is always really disappointing and our thoughts, and feelings are with the player.”

“Our group did that really well and we are now happy his knee, in the long term, is good. In the same moments, there are mixed feelings and disappointment that he is out of this season. The players are feeling we are building something good and we want to be part of it and everyone wants to be part of it. That injury he is out so there are two sides of it but the good sides are the long term he is out.”
