Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong has already pledged his future to the Spanish giants amid Manchester United's plan to make a fresh move for the Netherlands international.
De Jong, who started each of the Netherlands' five World Cup fixtures in Qatar, was right at the very top of Reds manager Erik ten Hag's transfer wish list during the summer, as he set about trying to strengthen the club's midfield options. United chased his signature for more than 100 days before being forced to admit defeat.
The Reds, at the end of June, agreed a £56.14million deal to sign De Jong, only for the deal to break down over a dispute concerning unpaid wages at the Barcelona end. United, though, have continued to be linked with the 25-year-old over the last few months.
