Donny van de Beek is excited about his return to Manchester United.

The Dutchman spent last season on loan at Everton after a torrid 18 months at Old Trafford.

However, with his former Ajax manager Erik ten Hag sitting in the dugout, van de Beek is optimistic about his future.

"[United] is a massive club with a lot of fans and, to wear the shirt, it's always a special feeling," van de Beek told MUTV.

"For me as well, I'm really happy to be back.

"For my experience, I think [the Everton loan] was good," he continued.

"Obviously, I was a little bit unlucky with my injuries.

"I missed a lot of games but to have that experience… it was not an easy season for the team, because we played to avoid relegation, which is not what you want for a club like Everton, but, overall, it was a good experience to be there."

He added: "I think making as many minutes personally, as I can.

"I think we need to improve as a team. If you're looking at last season, we have a lot of things to improve and, if we work on that now, then we'll see where we end up.

"We will fight for everything."
