Barcelona 'willing' to sell Frenkie de Jong in cut-price transfer despite Xavi comments

Manchester United could recruit Frenkie De Jong for as little as £51m with Barcelona willing to sell up, as per reports.

The Dutchman is into his third season with the Catalans but is the subject of interest from the Red Devils, who are aiming to bolster their midfield options. Barcelona signed De Jong from Ajax in 2019 for £65m but are now ready to accept a loss on the Dutchman such is their financial situation.

Goal understands that the LaLiga giants will accept a bid of just over £50m for the player as they remain open to offers for several of their players. Xavi is leading a Nou Camp overhaul with the club attempting to become competitive once more whilst balancing their books following a difficult period financially.
