Manchester United close to first summer signing after agreeing £40m deal for Ajax’s Donny van de Beek

Manchester United fans can finally heave a sigh of relief as they are almost on the verge of completing a deal for their first signing of the summer transfer window.

News broke on Sunday that Ajax’s star Donny van de Beek has agreed personal terms with Manchester United and is due for a medical in the coming days ahead of a £40m move from the Dutch side.

The deal, which is believed to be around €39m plus another €5m in add-ons, is expected to be completed in a couple of days from now while the player is on international duty with the Netherlands.

The 23-year-old Dutch international will complete his medical while on duty for the Netherland national team, who feature against Poland (4 September) and Italy (7 September) in the Nations League, before finally travelling to the UK.

United have been watching Van de Beek closely, with the player left out of Ajax’s squad for the Dutch champions’ friendly with Eintracht Frankfurt on Saturday amid rumours of an imminent move away.

Van de Beek was part of the Ajax set up that reached the 2018-19 Champions League semi-finals, scoring four goals along the way and 40 in all competitions over the last three seasons.

Ajax chief executive  Edwin van der Sar, in May, confirmed the midfielder will be allowed to leave the club at the end of last season but only for the right fee.

Van de Beek was close to joining Spanish champions Real Madrid prior to the coronavirus pandemic, but the move did not materialise as he did not complete a medical or sign an agreement with the club.

Reports indicate that there was a preference for any deal involving him to be completed before Ajax kick off their new season in the Dutch Eredivisie against Sparta Rotterdam on 13 September.
