Manchester United's Donny van de Beek ruled out of Euro 2020

Van de Beek is “struggling with an injury”, the Dutch FA confirmed on Tuesday.

MANCHESTER UNITED MIDFIELDER Donny van de Beek has been ruled out of Euro 2020 by the Netherlands.

Van de Beek is “struggling with an injury”, the Dutch FA confirmed on Tuesday, and will not be fit in time to take his place in Frank de Boer’s squad.

De Boer will not call up a replacement for the 24-year-old.

The Netherlands open their championships against the Ukraine on Sunday in a group which also includes Austria and North Macedonia. 

The news is the latest blow for van de Beek, who has struggled to settle at Old Trafford since his move from boyhood club Ajax last summer.

He made just four league starts for United this season with the majority of his playing time restricted to appearances from the bench and in cup competitions.

    Think its blatantly obvious Meylers a better option then Paul Green, Damien Delaney is a better option then McShane and although nobody seems to like Stokesy he showed on Wednesday night hes more abillity then Sammon or Cox but its still a decent squad given whats available just a shame O’Brien and Quinn are out.COYBIG

    Stokes will never get in an Ireland squad due to his off field antics… I still dont no how Green and Mc Shane are getting picked over the more talented younger players out there..

    Meyler is going to see very little first team action this season with Huddelstone and Livermore signing for Hull.
    Don’t get why people continually knock Green. The last few times he’s played for us he’s done well, especially against Sweden.
    For those giving out about us not playing our best team, what exactly does that look like? Played against Wales, arguably the team that many “fans” would consider our strongest lineup and we couldn’t finish any chances.
    I’d trust the manager long before any so called “armchair manager” in relation to picking are best possible team to achieve the best possible result.
