Manchester United transfer news RECAP Donny van de Beek 'interest' and Marcus Rashford latest

After three straight defeats, in all competitions, Erik ten Hag and his misfiring team defeated Burnley with captain Bruno Fernandes scoring a fantastic winner. He volleyed into the net in Robin van Persie-like fashion.

With one eye on the January window, meanwhile, United continue to be linked with mid-season moves, as Donny van de Beek reportedly attracts interest from Spanish side Villarreal. Van de Beek has yet to get a single minute for the first-team this season.
