Barca & Man Utd ‘close’ to agreeing fee but De Jong still doesn’t want to leave - reports

Frenkie de Jong’s future continues to dominate the rumor mill while the Dutch midfielder is busy enjoying a well-deserved holiday in the United States.

First up are Diario Sport who are reporting that Barcelona and Manchester United are “very close” to agreeing a fee for the 25-year-old.

The “deal would be for around 80 million euros” and the Red Devils think they can seal the transfer before the end of the month. Good luck with that.

Of course it’s not quite as easy as all that. De Jong “still needs to give his yes to the operation” and agree a salary with the Red Devils.
