Manchester United's former captain Gary Neville has publicly criticised Barcelona once again over their treatment of Frenkie de Jong.
It has been several weeks since United and Barcelona came to an agreement in principle for the transfer of De Jong. However, things have since proven far more complicated than simply signing some paperwork to get the deal over the line.
The Dutch midfielder is owed up to £17m in deferred wages after he agreed to accept a lower salary during the Covid-19 pandemic on the condition that it would be paid back at a later date. Barcelona are believed to want to move the midfielder away from the club to cut back their wage bill, but the issue of the money still owed to the player is holding the deal up.
