Three clubs agree loan terms to sign Donny van de Beek from Manchester United

Donny van de Beek is almost certain to leave Manchester United on loan this month amid concrete interest from three clubs.

Crystal Palace, another Premier League club and an unknown overseas club are understood to have all provisionally agreed on the terms of a loan and it is now at the player's discretion which club he chooses to join. Any club that recruits Van de Beek would cover his weekly wage of £120,000 in full and could pay a loan fee.

Van de Beek, 24, has been training in Amsterdam in recent days and the United squad is due back at Carrington today to resume training after a week off.

Newcastle and Borussia Dortmund were both offered Van de Beek by his new agent, Ali Dursun, earlier this month but Van de Beek's partner Estelle is the daughter of Arsenal great Dennis Bergkamp, who remains close to his former Arsenal teammate and Palace manager Patrick Vieira.

The Manchester Evening News reported on Friday Van de Beek was hopeful of receiving permission from interim United manager Ralf Rangnick to head out on loan despite the German's preference to keep the playmaker.

United's switch to a 4-3-3 formation and the expected return of Paul Pogba from a thigh injury next week could further restrict Van de Beek's playing prospects if he stays beyond January.

The MEN reported on Thursday Van de Beek is 'upset' by his situation at United and felt misled over his playing prospects by former manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Figures at United believe Van de Beek lacks the required physicality to succeed in the Premier League even though he added muscle mass in the close season.

Van de Beek has not started a Premier League game since May and he has only lined up in four league games since he joined United in a £40million deal 17 months ago.

Rangnick confirmed earlier this month Van de Beek wanted to leave to get regular playing time and force his way back into the Netherlands squad ahead of the winter World Cup.

Coach Louis van Gaal has omitted Van de Beek from all three of his squads so far this season and Van de Beek had to withdraw from the European Championship squad due to a groin injury.
