Paris Saint-Germain duo Mauricio Pochettino and Lionel Messi are both in agreement that Manchester United target Frenkie de Jong is a "fantastic player."
The Dutchman, who joined Barcelona from Ajax back in 2019, is on United's radar ahead of the transfer window opening in less than a week's time. The Reds are desperate to strengthen their midfield options and De Jong is among their leading targets.
The midfielder worked with United manager Erik ten Hag at Ajax and the latter is keen to be reunited with him at Old Trafford. He is understood to have reached out to De Jong's agent in a bid to lure him to England, even though United's lack of Champions League football next season could prove problematic in their attempts to strike a deal.
