Manchester United will give Frenkie de Jong additional opportunity to settle on a choice on going along with them prior to continuing on toward elective targets.
The Red Devils have purportedly reached a £63.5million accord to sign the 25-year-old, who stays hesitant to leave Barcelona, as they actually owe him £14m in neglected compensation. New director Erik ten Hag made De Jong his No.1 move focus after he was named in May, however notwithstanding the pair's great relationship from their time together at Ajax, the midfielder has reliably perseveres. His position has constrained United bosses - who traveled to Barcelona this week to work out an arrangement - to hesitantly sound out reinforcement choices.
As indicated by BBC Sport, the Red Devils have shortlisted various names who profile much the same way to De Jong, whose new four-year contract with Barcelona became dynamic on July. Also, it's in that new arrangement where the issue lies, as the Dutchman is owed installment from the beyond two seasons in which he conceded his compensation to assist the Blaugrana with making due during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Two of the options who United could target are Premier League stars Youri Tielemans and Ruben Neves. Leicester City expert Tielemans just has one year left on his arrangement at the King Power Stadium, implying that he may be accessible at a reduced expense charge this late spring. In the mean time, Neves has for quite some time been supposed to leave Wolves for higher calling, yet is secured to Molineux until 2024.
Barcelona president Joan Laporta has conceded that De Jong should think twice about he needs to remain, with authorities illuminating him that he really wants to leave the Camp Nou for monetary reasons. Notwithstanding, the Netherlands worldwide realizes that Barcelona should respect his agreement, with director Xavi Hernandez improbable to freeze him out because of his plush ability to playmaking.
De Jong, who finished paperwork for Blaugrana for £65m in 2019, has shown up in Catalunya and been a standard starter for Barcelona's four super durable directors since his appearance. Before the finish of last season, Xavi named the previous Ajax midfielder "unsellable," while De Jong himself asserted in June that his inclination is to wait.
"What I'm talking about, there is literally nothing of an arrangement or anything official," De Jong told ESPN. "Right now there is no doubt of it by any means - not that I am aware of regardless. Or on the other hand they should not have told me, yet I think not. I like to remain with Barcelona. Barcelona is only my fantasy club. Likewise since early on, I just said it, as well. I've never lamented my decision regardless of the way that I had expected more as far as prizes than I've accomplished up to this point. However, I have never lamented my decision."
