Frenkie de Jong is at the mercy of all the rumors in Catalonia. Rather inclined to stay at FC Barcelona, he is courted by the two Manchester clubs, especially United where Erik ten Hag will take place at the dawn of next season, his former coach with whom he revealed himself at Ajax . Barca and Xavi would like to keep him instead but the midfielder also represents a significant market value. Its sale could bring in around €80 million, enough to make the Blaugrana management think, aware of the economic difficulties the club is going through.
“For me, Frenkie is very important. He started in most games except when he had to rest, but there is also the financial situation of the club. With Frenkie, it’s clear. He can mark an era in the club but we will see., conceded Xavi at a press conference this Saturday. In any case, he did not plan to separate from the Dutchman. “There are non-transferable and transferable players, but in the end you have to look at the economic situation and we have to know where we are to make decisions. We have to finish the season and then we will know how the club is and how we have to act. We are clear about it but we have to talk about it.”
