Jakarta –
Manchester United may fail to get Frenkie de Jong from Barcelona. This is the only thing that can make the Red Devils bite their fingers.
Manchester United reportedly really want Frenkie de Jong. The latest offer of ‘Red Devils’ is in the range of 55 million pounds, but has the potential to increase depending on the bonuses of the clause.
The total proposal submitted by MU is believed to be close to the price set by Barcelona. Barca are trying to get 72 million pounds, but that figure is expected to still be rocking considering they need fresh funds.
On the other hand, Barcelona was actually reluctant to release De Jong. This was stated by the President of Barcelona, Joan Laporta.
“There are clubs that want him, not just United. We have no intention of selling him, he wants to stay. Frenkie is considered one of the best midfielders in the world by all the experts. We are delighted to have him.”
said Laporta.
Barcelona is reorganizing its chaotic finances due to the Corona virus pandemic. Player salaries have been cut since two years ago and now hopes that De Jong will also want to reduce his salary again.
If the Dutch midfielder agrees to reduce his salary, Barcelona will be happy to keep him. Man United also had to simultaneously forget about getting De Jong.
“I will do everything in my power so that Frenkie stays here, but there is also a salary issue and that has to be adjusted,” Laporta continued.
De Jong has also explained that there is still a desire to stay at Barcelona. Moreover, the Blaugrana was his dream club since he was a child.
“I prefer to stay with Barcelona. Barcelona is my dream club. Also from a young age. I’ve said it,” De Jong told ESPN.
“I have never regretted my choice despite the fact that I expected more than I have achieved so far. But I have never regretted my choice.”
