Gary Neville sends strong message to Manchester United target Frenkie de Jong and Barcelona

Gary Neville has sent a strong message to Frenkie de Jong and Barcelona amid Manchester United's ongoing transfer saga with the Dutch midfielder.

Last month, United reached an 'agreement in principle' with Barca over the signing of De Jong. However, the 25-year-old is thought to be reluctant to join United due to the money he is owned by his current club — despite his links with new Old Trafford head honcho Erik ten Hag.

It is understood that De Jong is owed €17m by the Catalan club. Despite owing one of their current players this amount of money, Barca have been active in the transfer window, bringing in the likes of Robert Lewandowski and Raphinha to the club.
