Barcelona agree initial €65m fee with Man Utd for Frenkie de Jong - report

Barcelona have finally agreed a fee with Manchester United for midfielder Frenkie de Jong, according to multiple reports.

The Red Devils are willing to pay an initial fee of €65 million for the Netherlands international plus add-ons although there are warnings the deal is not done yet.

BBC Sport say there are “still significant issues to work through” but offer no explanation as to what those issues may be.

There’s a similar story at ESPN who talk about “significant hurdles to overcome” but add that “there is now increasing confidence at both Old Trafford and Camp Nou” that De Jong will move.
