Barcelona midfielder Frenkie De Jong has no plans to leave the Catalan side during the summer transfer window, according to Cadena CER.
According to the source, the blue garnet management expects to sell the player in order to get 80 million euros for him for summer transfers, but De Jong has not given his consent to a move to Manchester United.
Previously, Barcelona rejected the Dutchman’s first offer of €60m, excluding bonuses. The contract of the 25-year-old player with Barcelona is valid until June 30, 2026.
In the season ended, de Jong appeared in 46 games across all competitions, scoring 4 goals and providing 5 assists.
