Incoming Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has previously hailed Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong's calmness and ability to play under pressure amid speculation the pair could be reunited at Old Trafford this summer.
According to reports in Spain, United are working on a deal to sign De Jong. The duo worked together at Ajax until the midfielder joined Barcelona back in the summer of 2019.
De Jong, who turns 25 on Thursday, thrived under Ten Hag's management in Amsterdam and earned his move to Barcelona as a result of his development under the incoming United boss. He played a key role in their famous run to the semi-finals of the Champions League in 2019 and made almost 100 appearances for the club.
