Frenkie de Jong is once again in the 'eye of the hurricane'. During recent summers, the Dutchman has been involved in rumors that link him to a possible departure from FC Barcelona, since he is one of the players with the most market within the club. Several teams are on the trail of him, but Manchester United would be more than interested in acquiring his services and would be studying the possibility of sending the Catalans a formal offer for the footballer.
Erik ten Hag wants to form a 'super team' at Old Trafford after a disappointing season in which they failed to secure a place in European competitions. For this reason, after having completed the signings of Joshua Zirkzee and Leny Yoro, the Dutch coach would like to incorporate his former pupil into the squad he manages at Old Trafford. However, the Mancunians' proposal would 'barely' reach 40 million euros, a figure that is very far from the Barça entity's claims.
Barça does not intend to 'give him'
And the fact is that Barcelona would not take a dim view of the departure of the midfielder, whose salary is the highest in the team and in LaLiga. However, they would not be willing to let him leave at any price, since the 27-year-old footballer is valued at 70 kilos according to 'Transfermarkt'. Therefore, everything indicates that in order to be able to hire an old desire, United will have to offer a figure that exceeds these 70 million so that the culés agree to part with a player whose future, as seems customary, is once again in doubt.
