'He cannot afford to just keep sitting on the bench': Donny van de Beek must LEAVE Manchester United to save his career, insists former Liverpool and Everton midfielder Don Hutchison

Former Liverpool and Everton midfielder Don Hutchison believes that Donny van de Beek should leave Manchester United in order to keep his career alive.

The midfielder failed to make much of an impact in his debut season after joining from Ajax for £35m last summer.

And things have not improved so far this term with just six minutes of playing time after five Premier League matches.

'I think if you're Donny van de Beek now, you've got to have the conversation with your agent, who's then gonna have the conversation with the manager, chief executive because you've got a World Cup coming up in 18 months time,' Hutchison told BBC 5 Live Sport.
