Manchester United has not forgotten Frenkie de Jong, and continues to insist on signing him. He was already very close to being able to acquire his services in the summer of 2022, when they presented an offer that was accepted by Joan Laporta and Mateu Alemany. However, at that moment neither the player considered a change of scenery, nor did Xavi Hernández authorize his departure. And time showed that the best thing that could have happened to Barça was for him to stay.

Because he was an indispensable piece in the schemes, and one of the reasons for the great season they had in La Liga EA Sports, revalidating a trophy that they had not been able to win for four years. For that reason, the previous summer market they did not even consider the possible sale of the international with the Netherlands team, no matter how much money he could leave in the coffers. But everything can change radically this year.

From the Camp Nou they still urgently need to obtain a lot of income, and right now there are few pieces that are untouchable, if not practically none. And they want to take advantage of this at Old Trafford to try to convince the Catalan team to study the idea of getting rid of the former Ajax Amsterdam and Willem II player. To do this, they have prepared a proposal that would reach 90 million euros.

Erik Ten Hag is obsessed with being able to work again with his former pupil, whom he turned into one of the best midfielders on the planet when they met at the Johan Cruyff Arena. He is sure that he is the piece that the 'red devils' need in the midfield to take a leap in level and be able to compete with the best clubs in Europe, and they will tempt De Jong with a bigger chip than the one he has right now in the Barca.

De Jong alludes to United's interest

But De Jong, for now, does not seem to be particularly interested in packing his bags, and he has reiterated that he is still very happy at Barça, and that he hopes to be able to continue in the culé discipline for many years. Furthermore, United are not going through a good moment in the sporting field, and it would not be a step forward in his career. So it will not only be enough to convince Laporta and Deco.
