'He was unbelievable at Ajax': ex-Arsenal striker Campbell wants Gunners to sign Van de Beek

Speaking on the Highbury Squad podcast, former Arsenal striker Kevin Campbell said: "There's been a rumour about van Donny van de Beek at Manchester United. It's not his fault, how is it his fault?

"He was at Ajax, he was unbelievable at Ajax. Gets signed by Man United and they won't play him. I'm just saying it's a rumour. I only want what's best for Arsenal and I believe that Van de Beek can play if given the opportunity.

"The boy can play. He wants out. You never know, maybe they might [loan him to Arsenal]. At the end of the day, what's the point of having an unhappy player and obviously, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer doesn't fancy him.

"I think this young man has got super ability, has got a great attitude, but he needs to play. He can play anywhere around that midfield, he can play holding, eight and attacking. So again, we've got someone who's versatile."

Arsenal, along with Everton and Newcastle, have been linked with a loan move for Van de Beek in the January transfer window as the Dutchman continues to grow frustrated at Old Trafford.

The 24-year-old has featured in just five games across all competitions for the Red Devils so far this season, spending a total of 154 minutes on the pitch and losing his place in the Netherlands national team.
