Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand fears Donny van de Beek might not get the chance to show his qualities at the club under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
The 24-year-old made just four Premier League starts last season following his £35million move from Dutch side Ajax last summer.
This season has started no better as he has been an unused substitute in United's opening two games.
With the other talent in midfield, it looks like it will be tough for the midfielder to break into the squad and he has been linked with a move away from Old Trafford.
Ferdinand has already resigned himself to the signing proving to be a 'failure' but feels that the Dutchman should have received more chances to prove himself.
" Donny van de Beek, he’s not going to get a chance in this team is he? £40million and he ain’t going to play," Ferdinand told FIVE.
