Frenkie Signed with the Barça in July of 2019 by seven seasons, until July of 2026, in return of 14 million net euros to the year. To the equal that the players of the staff with wages higher, the midfield player accepted to go down the wage to 5.8 'kilos' by season in 2020 by the irruption of the pandemia of the COVID.19. Nevertheless, this descent of wage represents, really, a diferimiento of honorarios, since the club will have to credit the equivalent to the discount of payroll in the next years.
It is as well as the Barça is due to players like Gerard Hammered, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba montos absurd that reach the 80 million euros, a quantity that the club will have to credit to his players in the next three years, with a time limit until 2025. In this sense, if Frenkie wishes to follow dressing the T-shirt blaugrana will not have to differ his wage but go down it of definite form by the four years of agreement that subtract him.
If the midfield player accesses to conserve his current wage (5.8M) would recess around 32 millions to his index card for the next four seasons. Like this, the one of Arkel would keep on being player culé without affecting the limit salarial that imposes LaLiga, which prevents, to these heights, inscribe to the reinforcements fichados this summer (Kessié, Christensen, Pablo Tower, Raphinha and Lewandowski). The Barça needs to go down payroll and Frenkie knows it and is had to yield.
England is not an option for Frenkie
Further of the interest of the Manchester United and of Chelsea, to Of Jong never convinced him the idea to leave to the Premier League. In Old Trafford reencontraría with Erik have Hag, his mentor in the Ajax, but the sportive actuality of the 'network devils' is not neither much less attractive. The 'Man Or' prepares for a season of transition in which they will try to remain with the Europe League, trophy that raised in 2017 with José Mourinho and that was them elusive in 2021 in front of the Villarreal.
By his part, Chelsea of Thomas Tuchel looks for suplir the hard drops suffered in defence (Christensen and Rüdiger) and try recover the stray terrain in the Premier, where Manchester City and Liverpool have dominated with clarity in the last five years. However, although it could win more money there, Frenkie prioritises to remain in the Barça. The centrocampsita wants to triumph in Catalonia and trusts that, under the orders of Xavi Hernández, will be able to attain it.
