    Man Utd sign Ajax star Van de Beek in £35m deal

    vvAdCKq.jpg


    Manchester United have completed the signing of Donny van de Beek from Ajax, having agreed to pay £35 million (€39m/$46m) plus £4m in add-ons for the Netherlands international midfielder. The 23-year-old joins on a five-year deal with the option to extend for an additional season.

    Terms of the deal were agreed on Sunday between the clubs, and the transfer has now been made official by the Old Trafford side after they reached an accord over personal terms with the player, who has also passed a medical.Van de Beek, who was not involved as Ajax tackled Eintracht Frankfurt and Union Berlin in friendlies over the weekend, has therefore become United’s first signing of the 2020 summer transfer window.

    Speaking to Man Utd's official website, the Dutchman said: “I cannot begin to explain how incredible an opportunity it is to join a club with such an amazing history.“I would like to thank everyone at Ajax. I grew up there and I will always have a special bond with the club.“I am now ready to take the next step in my career and perform at the highest level and there is no higher standard than Manchester United.

    “Everyone has told me how amazing the Old Trafford atmosphere is and I am looking forward to experiencing that, once it is safe for the fans to return.“This team has some of the best midfielders in the world and I know that I can learn from them and also bring my own strengths to the group.“Having spoken to the manager about his vision for this team, the direction that the club is going in is hugely exciting and I cannot wait to be a part of that.”

    Ole Gunnar Solskjaer added: “Donny has all of the technical attributes needed to perform in this team and has the personality required to succeed at Manchester United.“His ability to see space, time his movements and read the game will really complement the qualities that we have in midfield and his arrival really strengthens the depth of talent we have in that position.“Donny’s performances in the Eredivisie and in Europe have been excellent over the last few years and we are all looking forward to working with him.”

    Van de Beek has spent the last five years in Ajax’s first team, having been promoted from the reserves. He has made close to 200 appearances in all competitions for the Amsterdam outfit and has scored 41 goals for the club while laying on a further 34 for others.One of the highlights of his time with Ajax, where he won the 2018-19 Eredivisie title, was the run to the Champions League semi-finals in that same campaign, a competition in which he was recognised as one of the star performers.He could make his United debut in the club's opening match of the 2020-21 Premier League season, which will see Solskjaer’s side host Crystal Palace on September 19.

    --------------

    Congratulations Van de Beek!. Welcome to Manchester United!:love::yes: (y)

    Lionel Messi to stay at Barcelona next season despite transfer row

    r62n7Hz.jpg


    Messi had believed that a clause in his contract would allow him to leave for free this summer, but Barcelona and La Liga insist that his €700m release clause would need to be paid in full. "Now they cling to the fact that I did not say it before June 10, when it turns out that on June 10 we were competing for La Liga in the middle of this awful coronavirus and this disease altered all the season.

    "And this is the reason why I am going to continue in the club. Now I am going to continue in the club because the president told me that the only way to leave was to pay the €700m (£624m) clause, and that this is impossible."Messi's father and agent Jorge wrote to La Liga on Friday insisting his son is contractually allowed to leave Barcelona for free in the current transfer window.However, La Liga responded with a statement shortly after Messi's declaration - reiterating its stance that the €700m release clause remains valid.

    Messi says he has never considered taking the matter to trial in order to force an exit from the club where he has spent the entirety of his professional career."There was another way and it was to go to trial," he added. "I would never go to court against Barca because it is the club that I love, which gave me everything since I arrived.

    "It is the club of my life, I have made my life here. Barca gave me everything and I gave it everything. I know that it never crossed my mind to take Barca to court."Messi had informed the club of his desire to leave via an official note last week, and did not turn up for the team's first five days of pre-season training under new boss Ronald Koeman.The six-time Ballon d'Or winner says he wants to leave Barcelona to compete at the "highest level" after a disappointing season, which culminated in a 8-2 defeat to Bayern Munich in the Champions League.

    "When I communicated my wish to leave to my wife and children, it was a brutal drama," Messi added."The whole family began crying, my children did not want to leave Barcelona, nor did they want to change schools."But I looked further afield and I want to compete at the highest level, win titles, compete in the Champions League. You can win or lose in it, because it is very difficult, but you have to compete."At least compete for it and let us not fall apart in Rome, Liverpool, Lisbon. All that led me to think about that decision that I wanted to carry out."

    Hello Chelsea,

    I’m a Blue!

    I couldn’t be prouder and feel more privileged to join Chelsea Football Club. Yesterday marked the day of my childhood dreams coming true.

    I can’t wait to be wearing blue and playing at Stamford Bridge hopefully in front of all our incredible fans soon. 💙

    See you around in London! Stay safe and healthy!

    Yours,
    Kai
