Liverpool could 'rescue' Barça with Frenkie de Jong. Arne Slot would want to complete his ideal midfield with the Dutchman

Calendar of FC Barcelona

Frenkie de Jong, as usual, remains in the 'eye of the storm'. The future of the Dutchman is one of the biggest questions at FC Barcelona, as his lack of playing time has added to his complex contractual situation, and the player has less and less credit in the Catalan capital.

For this reason, various reports suggest that the Blaugrana entity, despite Hansi Flick's desire to continue having the midfielder, would be open to cashing in on the player during the upcoming summer market rather than losing him as a free agent in 2026 if he ultimately decides not to renew his contract with the club.

Liverpool insists on signing Frenkie

In this sense, Saudi Arabia appeared as an option on the horizon for the player, although his agent denied any contact with clubs from the Asian peninsula. However, from the Premier League, they would indeed be tracking the '21' Blaugrana, and Liverpool would be the team most interested in his services, as reported by 'TEAMtalk'.

The 'Reds' have been looking for a midfielder who can operate in the center of the pitch since last summer, and after receiving a negative response from Martín Zubimendi, Arne Slot would be keen to incorporate his compatriot into his squad. So far, there is nothing concrete, but Merseyside would be a very appealing 'escape route' for a De Jong who seems to have his hours numbered at Can Barça.
