The rumor of Frenkie de Jong's transfer to Manchester United is once again making the rounds in the corridors of European soccer. The 'Red Devils', who already showed interest in the Dutch midfielder in the past, seem ready to return to the charge in this transfer market.

Sources close to the English club claim that Manchester United would be willing to offer an amount close to 60 million euros for the Barcelona player. However, this figure could vary depending on the negotiations and the willingness of the Catalan club to let one of its most talented players leave.

A reunion with Ten Hag

One of the factors that could facilitate the transfer is the relationship between Frenkie de Jong and Manchester United coach Erik ten Hag. The two met at Ajax Amsterdam, where the Dutch midfielder showed his great quality and potential. Ten Hag would be delighted to have De Jong back in his project at Old Trafford.

Barcelona need liquidity

On the other hand, Barcelona is in a complicated economic situation and needs to generate revenue to comply with the Financial Fair Play. The sale of Frenkie de Jong could be a good way to obtain a significant amount of money and balance the club's accounts.

What are the media saying?

The sports press echoes this rumor and speculates about the chances of the transfer taking place. Some media claim that the player would be interested in meeting with Ten Hag in Manchester, while others point out that Barcelona is not willing to let one of its most important players leave the club.

On the other hand Manchester United fans are excited about the prospect of seeing Frenkie de Jong in a Red Devils shirt. The Dutch midfielder would bring quality, experience and a touch of elegance to the team's midfield. However, there are also some fans who are skeptical and fear that the club will pay too high a price for the player.

De Jong's future

The future of Frenkie de Jong remains an unknown quantity. The player has a contract with Barcelona until 2026, but his situation could change in the coming months. Everything will depend on the offers received by the club and the player's final decision.
