Manchester United should “do everything” in their power to sign Frenkie de Jong in the summer transfer window, according to Rene Meulensteen.
United spent last summer chasing De Jong, who was Erik ten Hag’s number-one transfer target. The 26-year-old ended up staying at Barcelona, with United instead signing Casemiro and Christian Eriksen to bolster their ranks in midfield.
However, the speculation has restarted ahead of the upcoming transfer window, which could see Barca offload a whole host of stars. The Catalan club have been told by LaLiga that they must free up £178million from their budget before they can sign new players, opening up the possibility of De Jong being sold.
