After all, Fabrizio Romano confirmed that Manchester United succeeded in pushing Donny van de Beek away.
Van de Beek joined the Bundesliga club on loan in January 2024, with Eintracht Frankfurt having the option to make a permanent purchase deal for just €12 million. However, Eintracht Frankfurt is disappointed with the former Ajax star.
The Dutch midfielder only appeared six times in Germany’s top league and failed to score or provide any assists. Therefore, Man United was forced to find a way to sell Van de Beek when Frankfurt decided not to activate the buyout clause in the player’s loan contract last season.
Van de Beek’s current contract with Man United only has one year remaining. The Red Devils must sell this midfielder to avoid losing everything next summer. After all, Man Utd succeeded in selling Van de Beek.
Van de Beek parted ways with Man Utd.
Specifically, journalist Romano confirmed: “Donny van de Beek joined Girona, here we go! Successful agreement with Man United, permanent transfer for a fixed fee of 500 thousand euros with some additional terms .
Additional terms easily bring Man Utd up to 4/5 million euros. In addition, other additional terms could increase the deal to up to 15 million euros.
Contract until June 2028. Man Utd will also have a provision to receive money when Girona sells Van de Beek in the future.”
Thus, Man Utd immediately earned 500 thousand euros, but will easily pocket 5 million euros for the deal, thereby accepting a loss of about 35 million euros.
