Van de Beek was key for Ajax last season as the Dutch giants completed a domestic double and defied the odds to reach the semi-finals of the Champions League.

Van de Beek’s versatility could certainly appeal to the Red Devils, the ace has starred in both an attacking midfield and a more traditional central midfield role this season.
The youngster also has nine caps for the Netherlands to his name, Van de Beek could be a star to keep a close eye on during this summer’s European Championships.
