Former Crystal Palace chairman Simon Jordan has delivered a damning verdict of Manchester United's embarrassing transfer chase of Frenkie de Jong.
The Red Devils have been attempting to sign the 25-year-old for much of the summer window. But despite agreeing a fee with Barcelona, they have encountered major problems trying to convince the midfielder himself that Old Trafford would be the right move.
Instead, he has been determined to snub the chance to link back up with former boss Erik ten Hag. With a move to United increasingly looking dead in the water, Chelsea are now reportedly planning their own move for the Netherlands international.
