Frenkie de Jong has made it clear he is happy to feature in defence when the situation requires it, but he does not see himself emulating Ronald Koeman and becoming a mainstay at centre-back for Barcelona.
The Netherlands international has been one of the driving forces behind Barca's resurgence this season with a string of impressive performances from midfield, only to then be moved to centre-back due to a number of injuries in defence.
De Jong has continued to thrive in the role, earning comparisons to Koeman - who starred as a ball-playing centre-back during his playing days - but the 23-year-old is keen to return to a central midfield position as soon as he can.
