Romano added that a buy-out option has been included in the deal, but it is not mandatory should the loan move not work out.
Van de Beek joined the Red Devils from Ajax Amsterdam in 2020 when Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was still in charge, but has only made 62 appearances in that period.
There is likely to be more departures at Old Trafford next month, with Jadon Sancho, Raphael Varane and Casemiro linked with exits.
