Barcelona enter total agreement with Man United over Frenkie de Jong
Raphinha and Ousmane Dembele, who will both wear the Blaugrana uniform for the upcoming season, have recently dominated the conversation in Barcelona.
Frenkie de Jong, who has been linked with a move away from Camp Nou over the previous few months, appears to have had his situation updated, though.
Barcelona have agreed with Man United over Frenkie de Jong
With their new coach Erik ten Hag eager for a reunion with the Dutchman, Manchester United has emerged as the player's most likely suitor.
And reputable journalist David Ornstein reports that the Premier League heavyweights and Barcelona have now struck a complete deal over the transfer of the former Ajax starlet.
The aforementioned contract may be worth up to €75 million; however, Man United intends to add €10 million in potential variables, bringing the total valuation to €85 million.
For Manchester United, coming to an arrangement with Barça might be a step in the right way. The Red Devils must make a lot of progress before they can successfully hire the Dutch international.
In fact, the star midfielder for Barcelona has made no mention of his wish to reconnect with ten Hag. Instead, he is eager to continue his chapter at Barcelona and contribute significantly to Xavi's team in the years to come.
Although Xavi himself thinks highly of the player, the Barcelona manager has recognized the club's financial predicament and given the board permission to approve the player's sale in the summer.
Barcelona owes de Jong a portion of his pay as a result of deferred wages, therefore the situation is becoming more problematic. It would be interesting to see if de Jong is open to the idea of joining Manchester United after the club gave him the go-ahead to depart.
