Barcelona and Frenkie de Jong are currently at odds over the Dutchman’s recovery from a knee injury, which he returned to Catalonia with after the World Cup.
De Jong was a prominent member of a Netherlands team that was bounced out of the tournament by Morocco on penalties in the round of 32. The midfielder was dealing with a nagging issue throughout but was reassured by the Oranje’s medical team that his "small" knee injury wouldn’t worsen if he continued to play.
