Manchester United have dropped a hint as to whether they revive their mission to sign Frenkie de Jog this summer. The 25-year-old has been heavily linked with an exit from Barcelona this summer amid Blaugrana's ongoing financial troubles.
It's believed that Erik ten Hag's side were once best placed to sign the Dutchman but, since Chelsea entered the race, the Red Devils seemingly turned their attention to Adrien Rabiot. Though, in another turn of events, the Manchester Evening News claim United have now called off the short-lived pursuit for the Juventus midfielder.
The report states that United agreed a £15million fee, rising to £20million, with the Old Lady for Rabiot, but sources say that the France international wanted an "obscene" salary. Rabiot's mother, Veronique, negotiated on her son’s behalf and was viewed as a stumbling block in talks due to her infamous reputation.
