Decision on Frenkie de Jong made

August 16, 2024La Liga

It’s a vital transfer window for both Man United and Barcelona, with the former rebuilding themselves under INEOS’ guidance and the latter hoping to further pull themselves back up the ladder after an awful few years.

The Catalan giants are still managing to sign some big name players, with Dani Olmo the latest to move to Barca, and the Nico Williams deal still isn’t completely dead in the water.

However, it does appear that they are still sailing by the seat of their pants in terms of whether they can stay on the right side of Financial Fair Play, and that arguably means that they need to make sales to give them some breathing space.

Man United’s de Jong decision

One player that would almost certainly earn them a decent amount in the transfer market is dynamic midfield ace, Frenkie de Jong.

The Dutchman was Erik ten Hag’s fulcrum in his excellent Ajax side, and so it’s little wonder that the Red Devils have been consistently linked with the 24-year-old.

Man United have made a decision on Frenkie de Jong

With United looking to offload the likes of Casemiro and Christian Eriksen, there’s an opportunity to slot de Jong into a new-look midfield alongside the likes of Bruno Fernandes.

According to Metro, however, United won’t be making a move for the player this summer.
