De Jong is by all accounts the only one they are at present centered around prior to squeezing ahead with different signings whenever they've persuaded Barcelona to sell.
Furthermore, Romano demands there is "still no understanding" between Man Utd and Barcelona over De Jong with the two clubs right now €16m separated in their valuation.
Romano told wettfreunde: "I'm certain that Man Utd will endlessly attempt since they're persuaded marking Frenkie de Jong will mean more than marking a phenomenal midfielder, more than marking a significant player on the pitch.
"It'll be a message to the market. Therefore Man Utd are fixated on this exchange.
"Since marking Frenkie de Jong when you dont have Champions League football, when you have another task with another director like Erik ten Hag, it'll make an impression on numerous different players, numerous different clubs that 'alright, we're currently at the high level and we can do that regardless of whether other top clubs are marking other top players like (Erling) Haaland, Darwin Nunez.'
"Along these lines, for this reason Man Utd are genuinely going after for this arrangement. Right now there is still no arrangement. So it's anything but a simple arrangement without a doubt.
"It isn't simple in light of the fact that FC Barcelona in the last gathering were clear with Man Utd. They let them know they won't acknowledge €60 million with additional items, €70 million with additional items.
"They need €86 million. This is precisely exact thing they contributed for Frenkie de Jong a long time back. They need similar cash and furthermore one more point for them to comprehend is with La Liga rules, the amount they can reinvest that cash."
Barcelona are expecting to utilize the cash they get from De Jong to entice Man City into selling Bernardo Silva this summer.Romano added: "They (FC Barcelona) need Bernardo Silva. Barcelona's main goal will be to sell Frenkie de Jong and sign Bernardo Silva with practically a similar cash. So they dont need to lose in this sort of arrangement.
"At similar point they need to ensure that with La Liga rules, they can reinvest the full piece of this cash that they would get from Man Utd Frenkie de Jong.
"To this end the arrangement isn't so quick, for this reason the two clubs are still in touch however there is still no understanding."
Furthermore, Romano is certain that Man Utd will "keep endlessly trying" to make it happen for De Jong as they hope to "send this message to the market".
He proceeded: "Frenkie (de Jong), on his side, is pausing. He's holding up in light of the fact that he expressed it in an exceptionally clear manner that he's in the best club on the planet, he's truly blissful at Barcelona.
"He has all the time in the world to leave the club. He's holding back to comprehend how Barcelona need to manage him.
"It's a truly unusual arrangement for the timing however I'm certain Man Utd will keep endlessly attempting in light of the fact that they need to send this message to the market."
