Manchester United have reportedly assured Frenkie de Jong of a main promise upon his transfer.
The Manchester Evening News understands that a deal in principle for the midfielder has been agreed with Barcelona. Reports claim Chelsea are eyeing a potential late swoop should a United move fall through, albeit clarify that there should be no further bumps in the road.
He is Ten Hag's primary target with a restock of the midfield in his sights. Ten Hag is expected to oversee a long-term project and now Sport claims he has told De Jong he wants him to be an integral part of it.
