Manchester United target Frenkie de Jong has previously admitted that he would put pen to paper on a 'six-year contract' if offered one by Barcelona.
The Netherlands international has emerged as a target for United ahead of this forthcoming summer's transfer window and the Manchester Evening News understands that the club is weighing up a £75million move for his signature. De Jong worked with incoming Reds boss Erik ten Hag at Ajax, meaning he is no stranger to the soon-to-be United manager.
United are in desperate need of strengthening their midfield options this summer after a wretched 2021/22 campaign, particularly the defensive side of the midfield operation. The club is understood to be already working on a deal to sign Kalvin Phillips from Leeds United.
