The 5-1 home win over Z United’s first game of the season seems to be a sign of Manchester United’s facelift for the Premier League title, but last weekend’s draw against Southampton made these expectations frustrated.
Jadon Sancho has yet to score when adapting to Manchester United’s playing style, and Raphael Varane has not played so far.
As the transfer deadline approaches, many people speculate that Manchester United right-back Donnie Van der Beck will ask for a transfer from Old Trafford.
Van der Beek joined the club last year with a transfer fee of 40 million pounds (55 million US dollars), but has yet to show up this season.
When he saw the Red Devils coach Solskjaer deploy Sancho, Jesse Lingard and the injured Scott McTominay, he was left on the sidelines of the Southampton game.
Since he joined from Ajax, the Dutchman has been struggling to gain playing time, which has caused some concerns among Manchester United fans.
After the Southampton game, Solskjaer makes sure everyone knows that Van der Beck has a role at Old Trafford.
“I thought Nemanja [Matic] Great, Anthony [Martial] Almost scored, but Jaden [Sancho] Downey is important to us,” Solskjaer said.
Guido Albers, agent representing Van de Beek, was interviewed Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf And expressed his client’s satisfaction with this situation.
“Everyone in the club knows that Downey can’t have another season like last year,” Albers said.
“In the preparation process, his role will be clarified. Fans have embraced him before, but the most important thing is the coach [Solskjaer] Clear information has now been provided in the British media. We are very satisfied with it. And I think Downey will play a lot of roles in a midfield position in the next period of time. “
Van der Beek’s future at Manchester United looks safe at the moment, but they will have to prepare for a shootout at the top of the standings. Chelsea now has Romelu Lukaku.
Manchester United will face the Wolverhampton Wanderers at the Molineux Stadium on August 29.
