Frenkie de Jong has reiterated his desire to stay at Barcelona but Arsenal should be more optimistic than Manchester United about changing his mind.
Reports in Spain claim Barca no longer consider the 24-year-old an indispensable member of the squad and are willing to listen to offers in the region of £60million. United, who are on the lookout for a new midfielder, expressed their interest in the playmaker as Erik ten Hag is keen to reunite with the former Ajax man.
But the Dutchman insists he is happy at the Nou Camp and a move to Old Trafford does not appeal to him. He said: "I prefer to stay in Barcelona, I've said it before. Barca is the club of my dreams since I was little.
