As the new season unfolds, Donny van de Beek, who has yet to make an appearance, is on the verge of a potential exit from Manchester United before the looming transfer deadline this Friday.
As the transfer deadline day approaches, Manchester United might see some players depart, including Donny van de Beek.
Donny van de Beek does not have many opportunities at Man Utd
While Real Sociedad initially displayed interest in the Dutch player, that interest seems to have waned recently. Now, according to Foot Mercato, French club Lorient is emerging as a potential destination for Van de Beek, who hasn’t seen any action on the field this season.
The report states that Lorient has reached an agreement with Manchester United for a loan deal, but they now need to convince Van de Beek to agree to the move. Apparently, there are several other offers on the table for the player as well.
However, initial signals indicate that Van de Beek might not be enthusiastic about a move to Lorient, as he seems to have higher aspirations in mind. Time is ticking for a decision to be made, adding an element of urgency to the situation.
In other news, according to Marca, Manchester United inquired about the possibility of acquiring Alfonso Pedraza, the left-back from Villarreal. However, it appears that the pursuit has come to an end, as the Spanish club reportedly informed United to abandon their interest in Pedraza.
It seems that the former Leeds full-back, Alfonso Pedraza, was under consideration as one potential option from a shortlist that included Marc Cucurella and various other players. However, Villarreal views Pedraza as a crucial asset and opposed Manchester United’s interest, particularly since it was for a loan arrangement.

Currently, Manchester United is engaged in discussions with Marc Cucurella regarding a potential loan deal from Chelsea. The search for an emergency left-back continues as the team faces substantial injuries to Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia.
Among the names that have been linked, Leicester’s Luke Thomas and Brentford’s Rico Henry have emerged as potential options. Furthermore, reports suggest that Manchester United had shortlisted Sergio Reguilon from Tottenham, as per information from MEN Sport. The club seems to be exploring various avenues in their pursuit of a left-back solution.
