Frenkie de Jong Chelsea transfer truth revealed as Matthijs de Ligt plan could worry Man Utd

Chelsea and Barcelona have a love-hate relationship this summer when it comes to transfer dealings, which could be fuelled even further if the latest rumours on Frenkie de Jong are to be believed.

The Blues could fall foul of Barcelona's decision-making, as both Ousmane Dembele and Raphinha could end up playing football at the Spotify Camp Nou next season if the latest suggested deal is to come to fruition. Todd Boehly can, however, be thankful to the Catalan giants for taking some players manager Thomas Tuchel views as surplus to requirements, with Marcos Alonso and Cesar Azpilicueta linked with moves that would see them follow Andreas Christensen to the club.

It must be noted though, that the former of the Spanish pair is a lot more closer to sealing a La Liga move in comparison to Azpilicueta, who was involved in the new Chelsea kit launch on Thursday morning. Surely not more could go on between the two clubs? Well, if the latest is to be believed, Boehly could be about to pull off the biggest transfer hijack since Willian, with various Spanish outlets declaring that the American is 'giving everything' to steal Frenkie De Jong away from Manchester United.
