Paris Saint-Germain remain interested in Barcelona’s Frenkie de Jong, rule out Jules Kounde signing

Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain are getting ready to meet in a huge Champions League quarter-final starting next week, and the two clubs have constantly gotten in each other’s way in several different ways over the last decade.

Their rivalry on the pitch will be renewed in a few days but the transfer market is where PSG really want to win, seemingly looking to sign a Barça player at every available opportunity. They’ve been linked with a number of Blaugrana stars in recent months, but one name is starting to get real traction.

That’s according to Diario SPORT, who report that PSG remain interested in Barça midfielder Frenkie de Jong and could go for the Dutchman this summer once the departure of Kylian Mbappe is official and the club’s Financial Fair Play situation improves, allowing them to spend even more money than usual to try and finally crack the code of European success.
