After Erik ten Hag acknowledged the Manchester United work, the Dutchman just needed one player - Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong.

 

Ten Hag oversaw De Jong at Ajax and has been enthusiastic about rejoining with midfielder at Manchester United.

 

With Ten Hag enthused about introducting a possession-based style of play at Manchester United, he needs players like De Jong who are agreeable in possession.

 

Manchester United have struggled against high-pressing teams in ongoing seasons and having a player like De Jong who can spill out of pressure effortlessly is vital.

 

The video underneath of De Jong against Wales in the UEFA Nations League shows De Jong at his best when teams put squeeze on him and it impeccably sums up why Ten Hag wants the midfielder.

 

"That was the nature of Frenkie de Jong," said Louis van Gaal, the previous Manchester United manager who is currently Holland manager. "To that end he is worth €112 million."

 

 

As per CIES Football Observatory, a Swiss research bunch, De Jong is the seventh most important player in world football and is worth €112million.

 

Manchester United have supposedly concurred a €80million ensured charge with Barcelona for De Jong, and that means the Red Devils are signing the Dutch midfielder underneath his value.

 

At Ajax, De Jong established himself as perhaps of the most thrilling player in Europe when he worked in a more profound job, taking the ball in his own half and progressing it forward with his exact passing and adventurous spilling.

 

He hasn't had the option to do that at Barcelona because of Sergio Busquets being the deepest midfielder at Barcelona.

 

Notwithstanding, Manchester United boss Ten Hag expects to use Ten Hag as the deepest midfielder at Manchester United.

 

De Jong is a superb dribbler with the ball at his feet and is one of the most mind-blowing spilling midfielders in Europe

 

De Jong's spilling skill makes him a strong asset against teams who are attempting to press high in the opposition half. De Jong sees them coming, and he then has the skill and speed to get some distance from them.

 

Since joining Barcelona in 2019, just three players in Europe's main five leagues have been more viable while spilling with the ball.

 

De Jong has finished almost 80% of his dribbles in that time. He has been a preferred midfield dribbler over Chelsea's Mateo Kovacic and Liverpool's Thiago.

 

Just Zaydou Youssouf, Marco Verratti and Thomas Partey have been exceptional midfield dribblers than De Jong since 2019.

 

"You can scarcely put him under tension," said Ten Hag of De Jong during his experience as Ajax manager. "That is such an extraordinary gift."

 

He may be joining Manchester United at an immense cost yet we can all concur that De Jong is such a completely exhilarating prospect for United.
