Manchester United could land further £12.5million windfall from Old Trafford flop after summer exit

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Manchester United could be set for a further £12.5million windfall from Donny van de Beek's transfer to Girona, according to reports in Spain.

The La Liga outfit reportedly paid £416,000 for the Dutch midfielder, having struggled at Old Trafford since joining the Reds from Ajax.

United signed Van de Beek from Ajax for a fee believed to be in the region of £40million, but he'd make just 62 appearances for the club after arriving in 2020.

The majority of those appearances came during his first season with the club, making 36 in all competitions, scoring once. However, his game time would dwindle over the next three seasons and would have loan moves with Everton and Eintracht Frankfurt before sealing a permanent move this summer on a cut price fee.
