Manchester United are said to be reluctant to let Donny van de Beek leave on loan , however their reasons for making this decision contradict previous comments made by Ralf Rangnick. The leadership of the Old Trafford team is not allowed to let the former Ajax star leave in the second half of this season for fear that their squad may be stretched at any time.

Without major changes, Van de Beek will stay at MU
These reports come as Crystal Palace have expressed an interest in bringing Van de Beek to Selhurst Park in the next six months, while La Liga side Valencia have also expressed a desire to work with older brother.
United have had to deal with the consequential impacts of Covid-19 and fear a similar situation could unfold towards the end of the season. According to The Athletic, the Reds were concerned when games against Brentford and Brighton were postponed due to Covid-19 cases appearing in the squad and they are well aware a similar problem could occur at a critical stage of the season. prize. As a result, United want to keep the rest of the squad until at least the end of this season to ensure they always have a sufficient number of players to choose from.
Not only does this bring bad news for players like Van de Beek, it also runs counter to Rangnick’s earlier remarks. The German coach has discussed several times how he inherited a bloated squad from his predecessor Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and has struggled to keep all the side players satisfied.

Martial may be the only player to leave MU this month.
Not only Van de Beek is likely to be affected by United’s plans to hoard players, Jesse Lingard is also likely to miss a move to Newcastle this month as the Red Devils accept to keep him and lose everything in the summer. .
Rangnick’s brief tenure at United created problems behind the scenes. At one point, United were said to have 17 players wanting to leave. Much of the friction is thought to stem from a lot of people not getting enough playing time, whether it’s during the tenure of Solskjaer or Rangnick. Despite all this, United are expected to remain steadfast for the rest of the winter market and make Anthony Martial’s move to Sevilla the last of the month.
