Frenkie De Jong has no intention to leave Barcelona or take paycut - report

Frenkie De Jong still has no intention to leave FC Barcelona and join Manchester United, despite an agreement between the clubs on a transfer fee, according to Fabrizio Romano.

The player likes the city, likes the club, likes his current manager, and wants to stay.

Barcelona have said that if he wants to stay, they expect him to take a paycut in order to fit into the club’s salary structure.

Reports have been conflicted about whether De Jong would be willing to do this, but according to Romano, he has no intention of reducing his pay.
