Player advised to exit Manchester United as the club is a ‘step too high for him.’
Former Netherlands player Rafael van der Vaart has prompted Donny van de Beek to depart Manchester United this summer.
Van de Beek switched to Old Trafford last year when Manchester United decided to pay £35m to hire him from Ajax.
His entrance was met with public approval, the 24-year-old having proved himself as one of the stars of the show in the Netherlands with a series of noble displays in the Eredivisie and Champions League.
His first year in Manchester has been shorter than successful, though, with him disappointing to make a name for himself under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
He’s played an outer role at best, having to content himself with replacement appearances for much of the season.
It’s led to several reports that he could leave Manchester United this season and find himself a more desirable situation elsewhere, something several former Dutch professionals have asserted would be smart.

Van der Vaart is the latest to do so, with the former Tottenham man stating he thinks Van de Beek doesn’t fit in at Manchester United.
“He fitted perfectly into the Ajax system, but he doesn’t fit at United,” he told ESPN.
“If you have the opportunity to go to a team that suits you better and it’s an attractive team, I would definitely go for that.
“If nobody leaves United, he will have to be lucky to get into the starting eleven. He is far too good to sit on the bench for two seasons.
“He needs minutes very quickly. He’s still young, but time flies. A club like Borussia Dortmund would have been a better step for him. Manchester United is perhaps a step too high for him.”
