Manchester United midfielder Donny van de Beek has been left out of the Champions League squad for the group stage.

The Dutchman was a regular part of United's pre-season, but he has not been in the matchday squads since the new campaign.

Erik ten Hag revealed last month that the 26-year-old could be leaving the club and that could happen in the coming days.

Van de Beek is on the radar of Turkish and Saudi Arabian teams, and Galatasaray are currently favourites to sign him.

They made a loan offer of £1 million which was turned down last week, but the club are optimistic of landing his services.

The Turkish champions have time on their hands to sign the Dutchman as their transfer window only closes on September 15.

Van de Beek has no future with United. He needs to move on in order to revive his career which has been on a steady downfall.

He has scored just two goals from 60 appearances for United since his big-money move from Ajax more than three years ago.
