Barcelona president Joan Laporta maintains that Frenkie De Jong is not for sale despite Manchester United 's relentless pursuit.
The midfielder has been strongly linked with a switch to Old Trafford all summer and appears to be Erik ten Hag's No 1 target. United are believed to have agreed a fee for De Jong but finer details of the deal have yet to be ironed out and the chances of a deal being completed before their pre-season tour look slim.
The Spanish club have had to deal with persistent speculation regarding their Dutch star, who moved to the Camp Nou three years ago. Barcelona 's financial predicament has led to rumours of them cashing in, but Laporta has reiterated that the player is not for sale.
