Many still expect Frenkie de Jong to be a Manchester United player by the start of the new Premier League campaign, even though the midfielder was coy on the subject this week.
When asked about a potential switch to United, the 25-year-old stated he was "flattered" by rumoured interest but insisted he has no update on a potential transfer and remains happy at Barcelona.
Signing De Jong is thought to be a priority for new United boss Erik ten Hag, who worked closely with his fellow Dutchman during his time managing in his homeland. The elegant midfielder was a key cog within the famous 2018/19 Ajax side that reached the Champions League semi-finals and it is thought Ten Hag wants to build his midfield around him once again.
