Manchester United do not intend to give up Frenkie de Jong. The Dutch midfielder of Barcelona is the main target of the "Red Devils" this summer market. For this reason, the leaders of the English club have already offered a full 65 million euros for the player's card. But it seems that Barcelona is not happy with this amount.
The Spaniards are demanding at least 75 million euros to let De Jong leave. This is the amount the Catalans pay for the midfielder in 2019, to bring him to Camp Nou from the Ajax team. Barcelona seem determined not to compromise on the price of De Jong's card, but United representatives are aware of the Spaniards' financial problems, and think they can reach an agreement.
The main objective of the Catalans is to secure the services of Robert Lewandowski from Bayern Munich. To enable this move, Barcelona must get the best out of De Jong's card if the player leaves. Even in this case, approaching the Polish bomber is again a delicate operation. This has prevented the Catalans from rushing into their movements. But what does De Jong think about his future.
The Dutchman looks happy at Barcelona, despite the difficult situation the club went through last season. Recently, the midfielder said to the media:
"I am at the biggest club in the world and I feel good here…"
But it will be difficult for the Dutchman to stay at the Camp Nou if Barcelona shows him the door to leave. Especially considering that Erik ten Hag, his former coach at Ajax, is waiting for him at United. The midfielder's relationship with the new United coach is undoubtedly a factor that could affect his next destination.
