Manchester United have been handed a boost in their pursuit of Frenkie de Jong, with Barcelona “doing everything” in order to register their new signings.
As reported by the Manchester Evening News , United are continuing with their pursuit of De Jong. United are understood to have reservations about their fall-back options, leaving the Barcelona midfielder as their preferred target.
They’ve been continually frustrated in their attempts to get a deal over the line. Having agreed a fee with the Catalan club, Barcelona president Joan Laporta insisted the 25-year-old is not for sale.
