Manchester United are '95 per cent' expected to sign midfielder Frenkie de Jong, claims Barcelona expert Gerard Romero.

This could just be Barcelona hawking De Jong about and trying to bring out a rival offer for De Jong, it’s happened before, but it would not be a surprise to see United opportunistically make a move. Frenkie de Jong played under Erik ten Hag at Ajax before signing for Barcelona in 2019. Both Manchester United and Bayern Munich are interested in the Dutch player.”

Barcelona star midfielder Frenkie de Jong could move to Manchester United this summer to reunite with former Ajax boss Erik Ten Hag.

If de Jong were to stay at Barcelona beyond this season, the club is under the impression that when it came time to sell, they would be taking a loss financially. de Jong has spent the past three seasons at Barcelona, featuring in 97 matches and starting 88. According to Gerard Romero, Manchester United are expected to bring de Jong to Old Trafford and reunite him with former Ajax boss Erik Ten Hag this summer on a fee worth €70-80 million.

Barcelona need to rebuild - could cashing in on the rising star they signed for €86 million in 2019 really be the answer to their problems?

It is still possible for Xavi to be the Barca coach to finally fit De Jong in as a key cog in the team. He is also one of the top earners in the squad, on around €11 million a year after tax. He was one of the senior players to agree in 2020 to help the club’s finances by deferring some wages while extending his contract up to 2026. We are here to fulfil the objectives of the club.” One is that there is still time — he turns 25 today and retains the potential and quality to lead the team over the coming seasons. De Jong and those around him are well aware of the situation. He has been providing De Jong with specially-edited videos to show what he wants, especially where to receive the ball and how to connect with teammates. “The boss has said he has confidence in me. Xavi’s vision for the team is different from that of his old manager Pep Guardiola, with the “interior” midfielders now told to run forward more off the ball. It is a situation nobody expected when Barca paid €86 million to sign Europe’s most promising midfielder from Ajax in the summer of 2019. Nobody doubts De Jong has the ability for such protagonism, but it has not happened yet. Frenkie de Jong traipses unhappily from the pitch, and the Nou Camp crowd grumbles.

Ahead of joining Barcelona almost three years ago, Ten Hag, as quoted by UEFA.com, said: "He is always calm and always has the solution.

De Jong, who turns 25 on Thursday, thrived under Ten Hag's management in Amsterdam and earned his move to Barcelona as a result of his development under the incoming United boss.

Desperate times call for desperate measures, goes the infamous adage. And not many clubs in Europe are as desperate as FC Barcelona at the moment.

Xavi substituting de Jong on a few occasions is perhaps a testament to just that. The financial aftermath of Josep Maria Bartomeu’s erratic presidential tenure has cut deep at Barcelona. And not many clubs in Europe are as desperate as FC Barcelona at the moment.
