Manchester United set out £50m Frenkie de Jong intention and more transfer rumours

Manchester United and Barcelona are locked in discussions over Frenkie de Jong and a proposed summer switch, according to reports. De Jong is a concrete target for United during the upcoming window.

Speculation over the Netherlands midfielder remains at fever pitch and United are weighing-up a move for him in what would present a reunion with his former Ajax manager Ten Hag - who arrived at Old Trafford last Monday to start work on a much-needed summer rebuild.

Barcelona are thought to be open to cashing-in on the player and, while the figure varies, United could make that deal happen for anywhere between £50-80million. De Jong arrived at the Nou Camp three years ago after bursting on to the scene in Amsterdam under now-United coach Ten Hag.
