Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong is at the top of Manchester United’s summer transfer shortlist - and they have been given a boost by the Catalan club’s own list of transfer targets.
Barca boss Xavi is pursuing five players to bolster his squad’s ranks ahead of next season as they look to establish themselves as challengers on the European front to add to their domestic successes this campaign.
The club are looking at United’s Manchester rivals, City, with midfielders Rodri, Ilkay Gundogan and Bernardo Silva said to be on their wish list. That suggests that Barca are not fully counting on the future of De Jong at the club and could feasibly lead to a summer exit.
