Barcelona Transfer News: Manchester United are reportedly keen on signing Frenkie de Jong, as reported by Fichajes. They have been keeping tabs on the 25-year-old midfielder and are prepared to make another offer.
United has had a long-standing interest in the Dutch international’s services. Even more so now that Dutch manager Erik ten Hag has joined the team and shown an interest in him. The former Ajax manager would be thrilled to have the midfielder back at his disposal for the next campaign.
De Jong worked his way up through the Ajax youth system and was a key member of the first team. His play for the Dutch club garnered interest from many European teams. And in the summer of 2019, Barcelona outbid rival clubs to get him back.
The 25-year-old cost the Catalan giants about €85 million. Even though he has done passably since joining the team. The Dutch international’s career has fallen short of expectations.
Manchester United is planning to make a bid to sign Frenkie de Jong, a 25-year-old midfielder for Barcelona
He’s had a hand in four goals in 38 games so far this season. Despite being a mainstay in Xavi’s squad, the 25-year-old has failed to win over the Spanish coach. He may also be relocated this summer.
Barcelona must first find a way to unload their current roster of players before they can even consider adding new ones. Xavi wants to call in reinforcements, but in order to do so, they need to sell some of their most prized possessions. The 25-year-old’s exit may result in a substantial windfall.
Throughout the previous several seasons, rumours have circulated that United are interested in signing Frenkie de Jong. With Ten Hag at the helm, they are prepared to make an offer for the 25-year-old this summer.
A world-class central midfielder to play with Casemiro is a priority for the Dutch boss. The Dutch international seems like he’ll be a great addition to United. In addition, he won’t need much time to adapt to the new system because of his prior experience working with Ten Hag. It will be exciting to see whether United can secure De Jong’s transfer to Old Trafford.
