Manchester United are reportedly considering a January move for £50m-rated Ajax midfielder Donny van de Beek .
Van de Beek , 22 , was a key figure in Ajax 's run to the Champions League semi-finals last season , attracting interest from a host of clubs across Europe .

United are keen to continue their policy of signing younger players to help grow and develop , and Van de Beek meets the criteria .
But he is also seen as already having the necessary quality to go straight into Solskjaer 's team .
United are desperately short of options in central midfield with Paul Pogba and Scott McTominay both sidelined .
Andreas Pereira and Fred started against Manchester City on Tuesday night but were given the runaround before Nemanja Matic was introduced .

England and Borussia Dortmund star Jadon Sancho is also a target but the German side are adamant he will not be sold this month .

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer: United still have something to hang onto
Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is keen to strengthen in midfield this month and Donny van de Beek has emerged as a target
Manchester United are considering a move for Ajax's £50million-rated midfielder Donny van de Beek.
The goalscoring midfielder was one of Ajax’s stand-out players in their run to last season's Champions League semi-finals last season and could be available to sign this month.
Ajax's failure to qualify for the last 16 of the Champions League has alerted Europe's top clubs to the potential availability of their best talent, with United weighing up a move for van de Beek.
The 22-year-old would go a long way to solving Solskjaer's midfield problem this month, with Paul Pogba and Scott McTominay both out for one and two months respectively through injury.

Solskajer needs to strengthen his midfield and van de Beek fits the profile of the player he wants, as someone who has proved himself at the highest level but has yet to fulfil his full potential.
Although United accept January is a difficult month to land their marquee transfer targets, van de Beek is one that could be secured immediately and slot straight into their midfield.
With Solskjaer's only fit central midfield options currently comprising Fred, Nemanja Matic and Andreas Pereira, the United boss has told executive vice-chairman he needs to bring in at least one player in the January transfer window.

thedailymirror--2020-01-08--Newcastle have a £40m striker problem in Joelinton - how will Steve Bruce solve it?

Sell him ?
Loan him out ?
Bench him ?
Stick him in the U23s to learn how to kick a ball ?
Newcastle United have a £40m problem brewing in misfiring striker Joelinton , and the Toon Army are divided on how to solve it .
The Brazilian club record signing is fast becoming a joke among worried Newcastle fans , a byword for transfer window failure and questionable recruitment .
Opinions vary on Tyneside about how to turn a massive investment , into a player who can score goals , bully defenders , break hard into space , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ contribute .
The Joelinton situation is a big test of Steve Bruce 's management and the skill , both tactical and man-management , of his coaching staff .
What happens next with the former Hoffenheim striker who 's managed just one goal in 22 games ?
This is the nuclear option , but not on the cards yet .
He has a six year deal , and was brought for the long term , and Newcastle would end up making a massive loss , even if they could find a buyer .
Who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ current form ?
This is not an option that can be sensibly explored until next January ... and only then if he has continued to prove a flop .
Charging a hefty loan fee equivalent to Joelinton 's annual depreciation on the club accounts is one way to press the pause button on his Toon career without losing money .
But this is a last resort and not for now .
It would weaken Bruce 's squad , and attacking options which are already limited and lacking in convincing alternatives .
This is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he need a rest , mentally from the pressure of his confidence-wrecking spell of poor form and missed chances , more than physically ?
Sometimes sitting out a game or two out , studying it , seeing a bigger picture of how you can do better , can revitalise a struggling player .
Bruce will be considering this as a strong option for the trip to Wolves .
Only Bruce and the coaches who work with Joelinton know what his mood is in training , how team mates are rallying around , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ doing the business in sessions we do n't see .
Keep Joelinton in the side ... he 'll come good eventually ?
There are two reasons this could be Bruce 's best option – with caveats .
There is a player in there somewhere .
In a team that lacks athletes , Joelinton is mobile , runs the channels , and has a turn of speed than stretches defences .
He just needs to do it more , and better .
He is physical and strong , and looks to have the body @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a close quarters battle with even the strongest opponents .
He needs to lock in to the scrap , and win his fights .
This is where Bruce and Steve Agnew ( who helped Miguel Almiron through his barren spell ) step up .
United fans will forgive a lack of goals if Joelinton proves himself to be a gladiator , toiling and punching for the team .
That 's why Almiron remained popular despite not scoring for 11 months .
If he ca n't score , then try to flatten a defender @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one on the full-back and keep running .
Do n't look moody , fed up , beaten and sick of wearing the No9 .
This is the option I 'd expect Bruce to take .
Lay down some how truths about the intensity required .
With Andy Carroll nursing a hip/rib injury ( and most effective off the bench ) , Dwight Gayle lacking match-fitness , Yoshi Muto looking like a headless chicken and Almiron moved back into midfield , Joelinton , despite the drawbacks , remains their best option .
Well , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his former club Hoffenheim and preferred playing in the channels rather than as a central striker .
He 's missed good chances , including against Rochdale last week when he was jeered by Toon fans , who wanted more effort .
He could do with another striker alongside him to share the goal-scoring burden .
You also have to consider he is playing in a team who regularly completes games with just 30 per cent of possession , plays on the counter attack and does n't create as much as front-foot rivals .

Brazilian record signing Joelinton was jeered by Newcastle United fans and is at a crossroads. No goals in 19 games, MirrorFootball looks at what next for the £40m flop

Sell Joelinton?
This is the nuclear option, but not on the cards yet. He has a six year deal, and was brought for the long term, and Newcastle would end up making a massive loss, even if they could find a buyer. Who would pay more than £10m given his current form?
Loan Joelinton?
This is not an option that can be sensibly explored until next January... and only then if he has continued to prove a flop.
Charging a hefty loan fee equivalent to Joelinton's annual depreciation on the club accounts is one way to press the pause button on his Toon career without losing money.

With Andy Carroll nursing a hip/rib injury (and most effective off the bench), Dwight Gayle lacking match-fitness, Yoshi Muto looking like a headless chicken and Almiron moved back into midfield, Joelinton, despite the drawbacks, remains their best option.
But he'll NEVER score?!
Well, Joelinton never had a prolific record at his former club Hoffenheim and preferred playing in the channels rather than as a central striker.
He's missed good chances, including against Rochdale last week when he was jeered by Toon fans, who wanted more effort.
He could do with another striker alongside him to share the goal-scoring burden.

Although the star has faced several heartbreaking moments in her personal life, such as losing her mum and her new born daughter, the post is aimed at encouraging positivity among her followers.
“I wanted you all to know, struggles are real. We all have them but its HOW WE TURN them AROUND that matters the most,” she says.
“None of you knew about the struggles I faced financially, I kept it within me. I can however ask you all, please do something that fills your heart with joy and passion.”

Malin was a regular on our screens during 2016’s Love Island season.
She was eventually booted from the villa halfway through the series, and has gone on to be a mental health advocate.
The 26-year-old has had a tough start to the new decade after heading to A&E at the start of January following breathing difficulties.
Although the post reveals the battles that Malin has privately faced, she finishes on a positive note.
Since her time in the limelight, Malin has found herself to be “more abundant” by “helping you all with my pain. Its the most beautiful thing. When you serve others in this world, the world will serve you back 10x”.
