Donny van be Beek insists he will not be joining Real Madrid in the January transfer window as he does not want to leave current club Ajax in the middle of the season.
The 22-year-old has been linked again with a move to the Spanish capital after Los Blancos boss Zinedine Zidane refused to comment on whether the club would again target the Dutch midfielder along with Christian Eriksen.
Van de Beek, who scored in Ajax's 3-0 win over Valencia in the Champions League on Wednesday, was close to joining Madrid during the summer window, even admitting that his current club and the Spanish powerhouse were in talks over a transfer .
