Donny van de Beek 'couldn't get his head around the way Manchester United play', claims Jaap Stam, but the former Red Devils star backs the Dutch midfielder now on loan at Everton to still succeed at Old Trafford

Jaap Stam believes Donny van de Beek has struggled to settle into the Manchester United team, but that the Red Devils have also failed to make the most of his talents.

Van de Beek was a high profile arrival at United when he joined for around £35million in 2020 but has never had an extended run in the side, first under former boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and now Ralf Rangnick.

As a result he has been loaned out to Everton for the rest of the season, with Stam believing that his Dutch compatriot couldn't get to grips with United's playing style.
