Man Utd duo angered by Solskjaer & seeking assurances over their futures

Manchester United players Eric Bailly and Donny van de Beek have been left angered at being outcasted by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, according to reports.

The United pair have hardly played under the Norwegian coach and are now seeking assurances over their futures at Old Trafford, according to The Sun.




Van de Beek has started just two matches in all competitions this campaign along with one substitute appearance in the Premier League.

Despite the Red devils crying out for more creativity in midfield, the Dutchman has failed to find a way into Solskjaer’s plans with Fred and McTominay in his preferred formation as a defensive pairing.




His lack of game time at United has seen him lose his position within the Netherlands set up and with next year’s World Cup fast approaching the player is desperate for playing time.

Van de Beek has been linked with a loan move away from the club in the past and will likely once again attract interest from teams in the January transfer window but Solskjaer has so far refused to allow him leave.

The Sun claim it’s not just the former Ajax player wanting answers over his future at the club though with Bailly also having huge concerns.

Bailly signed a new long-term contract last April but has fallen out of favour under Solskjaer. Raphael Varane’s arrival in the summer now sees him start alongside Harry Maguire, and on the occasion either of the duo have suffered injury, Lindelof has stepped in.




The Ivorian’s only minutes this campaign came in the 1-0 defeat to West Ham United in the EFL Cup.

Bailly is also reported to have been left frustrated at Solskjaer’s decision to start Harry Maguire in the defeat to Leicester City with the skipper rushed back from injury and having a game to forget.

A jam-packed festive fixtures will see Bailly and Van de Beek hope they are given opportunities to impress with Solskjaer not afraid to rotate his team.
