Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong is not currently interested in leaving the club amid renewed transfer interest from Manchester United but that stance may change over the coming months, it has been claimed.
De Jong is said to lead United’s summer transfer shortlist with his former Ajax boss Erik ten Hag keen to bolster his midfield ranks. He believes the Dutchman would be the perfect compliment for Christian Eriksen and Casemiro, of whom De Jong is a huge admirer.
United had an initial transfer fee of £56.2million agreed with Barca last summer to sign the 25-year-old but no deal came to fruition as the player wished to remain at the Camp Nou. De Jong remains the highest earning player at the Catalan giants.
