Manchester United have already shifted three players out of the club in January.
Sergio Reguilon departed Old Trafford for good, with Manchester United ending his loan spell, forcing him to return to North London with Tottenham Hotspur.
Jadon Sancho went back to Borussia Dortmund, only on loan, with his first 35 minutes back in Black and Yellow going very well for the 23-year-old.
Then that leaves Donny van de Beek, who left Carrington for Eintracht Frankfurt, where he is loaned to the end of the season. He made his debut yesterday for the Bundesliga side.
Donny van de Beek debut for Eintracht Frankfurt
The Manchester United loanee played 63 minutes as his side beat RB Leipzig 1-0 away from home.
It was a decent run-out for Donny, and a terrific result for his new club, with Leipzig certainly one of the best sides in all of Germany.
Here are some of his key stats throughout the fixture.
- 63 minutes played
- 0 goals
- 0 assists
- 11/13 accurate passes
- 22 touches
- 1 time dispossessed
- 3 duels won
- 6 duels lost
Not a bad stint for the Dutch playmaker, who hasn’t played regular football for some time now.
The 26-year-old was ecstatic to get back on the pitch in the hopes of trying to revive his career away from Old Trafford. He posted the following to Instagram: ‘Happy to finish my debut with a win!’
Harry Maguire and Jadon Sancho comment
Former Manchester United teammates also congratulated Donny on the rare bit of game time. Harry Maguire and fellow loanee Sancho both left comments consisting of just emojis.
Sancho, of course, joins Donny in the Bundesliga. His Dortmund return was also yesterday, which could have gone much better for the 23-year-old. Gary Neville had something to say about this one.
Two good starts for the loanees in Germany. They’ll be desperate to make a statement to United and Erik ten Hag in the remainder of the Bundesliga season.
