Donny van de Beek could still leave Man Utd: Galatasaray continue loan talks after seeing £1m bid turned down on deadline day

• Midfielder has made 34 league appearances in three years
• Galatasaray already had one loan bid rejected
• Van de Beek desperate for move away from Old Trafford

WHAT HAPPENED? The two clubs continue to be locked in talks regarding the midfielder's future according to The Daily Mail. Van de Beek is in need of a fresh start after his career derailed during his time at Old Trafford, and Galatasaray remain interested despite seeing a £1 million ($1.3m) loan bid turned down on deadline day. Turkish Super Lig clubs are able to sign players until September 15.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: Van de Beek has failed to impress three managers since his £40m ($50.3m) move from Ajax in August 2020, including Erik ten Hag for whom he played under in Amsterdam. His time in Manchester has been plagued by injuries as well as a brief but unsuccessful loan spell at Everton.
