“Steven Bergwijn texted me to see whether I would play for Spurs. But I chose United,” Donny van de Beek is quoted by the Evening Standard explaining what happened before sealing his deal to join Man United.
“I felt ready for the next step. This was the time to go. That is why I was on the phone with my agent last weekend. In the end, there was an agreement,” he concluded.
We are all glad that Van de Beek did the right thing in rejecting a move to Tottenham Hotspur to join Old Trafford! He’ll definitely have a bigger chance to win trophies with us than a side who last won one 12 years ago.
The Dutchman is set to join up with his United teammates after finishing international duty with the Netherlands and could make his debut in our first Premier League game against Crystal Palace on September 19.
