Ronald Araujo has heaped the utmost praise on Frenkie de Jong after it was confirmed that Barcelona had won La Liga. The 26-year-old was was heavily linked with a move to the Premier League in the summer, but an exit from the Camp Nou failed to materialise.
Last year, football.london understood that Chelsea liked the idea of signing De Jong and they were even confident of securing his signature. But, despite a dispute over his contract with Catalan side, the Netherlands international decided to stay and he's since played an integral role in the club's recent success.
De Jong, who sees his contract expire in 2026, has featured 29 times for Barcelona, directly contributing towards five goals from midfield. His impressive performances helped Blaugrana beat Real Madrid to the La Liga title, and his efforts have recently been recognised.
