Barcelona would be willing to offload star midfielder for an offer worth €20 million – report
According to a recent report from SPORT, Barcelona would reportedly be open to accepting an offer of €20 million for Frenkie de Jong.
This revelation highlights the uncertainty surrounding the Dutch midfielder’s future at the club. De Jong, once considered a cornerstone of Barcelona’s midfield, has seen his role diminish under manager Hansi Flick.
He has lost his starting position and, to make matters worse, sections of the club’s fanbase have begun to express their dissatisfaction by booing him.
Barcelona have done their best
Barcelona initially attempted to resolve De Jong’s situation by offering him a contract renewal. Deco viewed him as a crucial part of the team’s plans before he suffered a significant ankle sprain in April.
However, the renewal proposal eventually expired, and the club now believes that negotiations would need to start afresh.
