Manchester United and Chelsea, but also Bayern Munich are the teams that are still interested in winning Frenkie de Jong this summer, informs Gerard Romero.
FC Barcelona has a problem because Xavi still needs reinforcements, especially on the sides of the defense. In the Catalan capital, however, they cannot afford it, because they are still struggling with the registration problem of Jules Koundé.
Frenkie de Jong’s departure was to cure the problems, but the Dutchman has so far been reluctant to leave the Camp Nou. As if that were not enough, he played in the Sunday match won by the Spanish runner-up against Real Sociedad (4-1).
He did not make furor, but so far there is no indication that the central midfielder would say goodbye to Barcelona.
Gerard Romero claims that the Dutchman’s departure is still possible, and the willingness to win him is declared not only by the representatives of the Premier League, i.e. Chelsea and Manchester United, but also by Bayern Munich.
The fans of “Blaugrana” can therefore be full of hope, although it is said that even if de Jong would go to the Bundesliga, it would be on a similar basis to that of Philippe Coutinho, ie on a loan with an option to buy it. This, however, would allow the budget to breathe for a while due to the salary distribution.
It’s just over a week until the transfer window is over, and they have to hurry at Camp Nou if they don’t want to lose Jules Koundé.
The Dutch representative from the beginning of his stay in the LaLiga representative played a total of 142 matches, and his achievements are 13 goals and 18 assists.
The contract, so questioned by the current Barcelona authorities, expires on June 30, 2026.
