Transfer news: Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Manchester United all chasing Ajax sensation Donny van de Beek

Barcelona and Bayern Munich are keeping close tabs on Manchester United target Donny van de Beek.

The 20-year-old Ajax starlet has emerged as one of the most promising young players in Dutch football over the past couple of seasons.

Former United boss Louis van Gaal was a big fan of the youngster and it has been suggested that the Old Trafford club retain an interest.

However, according to Sport1, they have been joined in the race for Van de Beek by both Barca and Bayern.

The two European heavyweights have reportedly dispatched scouts to take a closer look at the midfielder ahead of what promises to be a busy window.
