Barcelona midfield superstar will not entertain any offers to leave this summer

Last night, reports emerged claiming that the possibility of Barcelona selling Frenkie de Jong in the summer cannot be ruled out if a ‘special offer’ were to arrive.

The 26-year-old midfielder has grown into one of the most pivotal members of Xavi Hernandez’s team and is considered among the ‘untouchables’ in the squad.

But given the situation on the financial front, it was suggested that any big offers for the Dutchman could be entertained.

However, now, according to SPORT, de Jong has no desire to leave Barcelona and will not listen to or entertain any offers that do arrive for him this summer.

De Jong maintained a similar stance on his future last summer as well and turned down Manchester United, who had reached an agreement with Barça over a transfer.

And now that he has tasted success with the club, the Netherlands midfielder wants more and has no intentions of leaving Catalonia, where he is very happy.

While Manchester United continue to be admirers, more recently Bayern Munich have also shown interest in his services of late.

But, de Jong is least bit interested in studying any offers that may arrive for him in the summer.

At the same time, despite some reports suggesting otherwise, Barcelona do not intend to sell the midfielder either even though the financial situation remains complicated. He is among several players in the team who continue to be considered ‘non-transferable’ and that will not change.

Instead, the La Liga champions will continue to try and offload other players such as the returning loanees as well some of the first-team players who had limited roles last season, like Ferran Torres, Ansu Fati, and potentially even Franck Kessie.
