Are Barcelona heading for another Frenkie de Jong transfer saga?

Frenkie de Jong has been regularly linked with a move away from Barcelona ever since he arrived from Ajax in 2019.

It’s perhaps no surprise then to see a fresh round of speculation arise in the wake of Xavi’s announcement he’ll be leaving in the summer.

The latest update comes from Onze journalist Lluis Canut, who is known to be close to Ronald Koeman, and who reckons De Jong is no longer determined to stay.

Canut claims that De Jong’s stance has changed recently and that he’s “no longer closing the door on leaving Barça” in the summer as he has done previously.
