Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong could be set for another summer of transfer speculation after Manchester United have been said to revive their interest in the 25-year-old. Chelsea were also keen on the Dutch star last summer when his Camp Nou career appeared to be in doubt following disputes over the club's financial struggles.
Chelsea and United were both very keen in acquiring his services, but the versatile midfielder opted to remain part of Xavi’s side. However, Erik ten Hag’s side have already placed themselves at the front of the queue should De Jong reverse his decision, the Guardian reports.
However, it would require some convincing from prospective buyers, with the former Ajax player reportedly content at the Catalan club. Ten Hag has long been an admirer of De Jong's, and sees him as the ideal candidate to provide first-choice competition for the likes of Casemiro and Christian Eriksen.
