Van de Beek wants Woodward talks over Man Utd exit

Donny van de Beek is ready to quit Manchester United at the end of the season.

The Daily Star says the frustrated Dutchman is set to hold talks with executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward before the end of the season but wants to leave Old Trafford in order to kick-start his career.

Van de Beek has started 11 games in all competitions with the rest of his 15 appearances coming from the bench with manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer preferring his alternative midfield options.

He has found himself behind Scott McTominay, Nemanja Matic, Paul Pogba and Fred, with Bruno Fernandes holding down the regular spot in front of the two central players.

The 23-year-old is also said to be concerned his lack of playing time could affect his chances of making Holland's squad for the Euros this summer.

The midfielder has been unavailable for the last three weeks after picking up a muscle injury at the end of February.
