Football – Mercato – PSG
Wishing to strengthen its midfield this summer, PSG would carefully monitor the situation of Frenkie De Jong, from whom FC Barcelona could separate in order to recover funds. However, the competition would be rather tough on the file since Bayern Munich and Manchester United would also be interested. For his part, the 25-year-old could reconsider his future in Catalonia.
For this summer, the PSG would like to welcome three new midfielders in order to strengthen this area of play and support Marco Verratti. With this in mind, the Parisian management would have a few names in mind such as Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, Aurélien Tchouaméni or even Frenkie De Jong. The latter – although at the end of the contract in June 2026 – could well be sold by the FC Barcelona this summer. The Catalan club are reportedly looking for funds to recover from a tricky economic situation and a transfer of the Dutchman could help them as he has a good rating in the transfer market. However, the file would not be simple for the PSG given the competition from Bayern Munich and of Manchester United. Moreover, the club of Premier League would like to be fixed very soon concerning a possible arrival of Frankie De Jong this summer.
Manchester United are the team most interested in Frenkie De Jong, but…
According to information from SPORT, Manchester United would be the team most interested in Frankie de Jong and would have already contacted the player. The Red Devils would have also made it clear to the Dutchman that he would be one of the pillars of the new project ofErik ten Hag – his former trainer atAjax Amsterdam – if he were to sign in Premier League. However, the Mancunian club will not participate in the Champions League next season and this factor would be of rather great importance in the eyes of Frankie De Jong. Thereby, Manchester United is waiting to know the final answer from the Dutchman in order to start defining his new project. Yes Frankie De Jong dismisses the proposal of the Mancunian club, the Red Devils will fall back on another player to strengthen their midfield. For his part, the Blaugrana midfielder has already made a big decision for his future.
The Dutchman’s future is in his hands
Indeed, again according to information from SPORT, Frankie De Jong would be aware of the interest that the Bayern Munich and the PSG carry him. Nevertheless, the international Orange shouldn’t leave the FC Barcelona only if he does not push him to do so. For his part, the Barca would not conceal that a transfer of Frankie De Jong would not refuse to bail out its coffers. However, the Catalan club only want cash for the Dutchman. The Blaugrana management would not consider exchanging him or including him in another operation to lower the price of a player. Joan Laporta would also claim a rather high amount for Frankie De Jong and alone Manchester United would be able to get close to it for the time being. The mid-25-year-old would like to stay at FC Barcelona but would have some doubts about the sports project given the economic situation of the club. Moreover, the formerAjax Amsterdam would be mindful of competition in his position. The latter could therefore resolve to pack his bags this summer to integrate into a new workforce next season. Everything would be in the hands of Frankie De Jong. To be continued…
