Former Liverpool midfielder Don Hutchison has questioned Manchester United's deal for Donny van de Beek.

Hutchison highlighted Van de Beek's performances for Ajax as the Dutch giants reached the 2019 Champions League semi-finals as evidence that he is a player capable of delivering for United.

“He [van de Beek] with F De Jong and De Ligt were bossing the Champions League," Hutchison posted to social media.

“In my humble opinion Man U bought him with no idea how to use him.

"Lazy scouting and management just thought 'He's good let's buy him'."
