Donny van de Beek has hinted that he could be in line for a start when Manchester United face Real Sociedad in the Europa League on Thursday night.
Van de Beek, 23, has been subject to heavy debate following his summer move from Ajax. The Netherlands international has struggled to get into the United side every week and some fans have complained that he should be getting more opportunities in the team.
However, following his latest post on Instagram, Van de Beek could be in line to start on Thursday night in Turin where the Red Devils take on La Real.
“Preparation is key,” Van de Beek said on his post.
