Earlier this month, a report from SPORT emerged stating that Paris Saint-Germain are monitoring the situation of FC Barcelona’s Frenkie de Jong closely.
The Parisians are no strangers to taking away a player from FC Barcelona and now the capital club could be eyeing another in 2025. Over the three years, the Parisians have made vital signings to bolster their midfield, bringing in the likes of Vitinha, Fabián Ruiz, and João Neves coming into the fold.
Despite de Jong being on their radar, Fichajes reports another club is also attempting to make a move. According to Sport, despite De Jong previously turning them down, Manchester United plan to make another attempt to sign him in January.
They hope to capitalize on Barcelona’s financial troubles, which might push the club to sell to ease its situation.
The Dutchman joined Barcelona in 2019, making 215 total appearances, scoring 17 goals, and registering 21 assists. The former Ajax man has also won one LaLiga title, one Copa del Rey, and one Supercopa de España.
As for how much the player will cost PSG should they pursue him, Transfermarkt puts de Jong’s value at €60 million.
