The ongoing transfer saga involving Manchester United and Frenkie de Jong shows little sign of being resolved any time soon.
United have made Barcelona midfielder De Jong their their chief target this summer. They are keen to re-unite him with manager Erik ten Hag as he embarks on his first season in the Old Trafford hot seat.
The Spanish giants are open to selling the Dutchman and United clearly want to make him their latest recruit, following in the footsteps of Christian Eriksen, Tyrell Malacia and Lisandro Martinez. But a number of hiccups are said to be preventing the deal from being completed, with reports citing wage demands and the fact United cannot offer Champions League football next season.
