Negotiations between Man Utd and Barcelona for Frenkie De Jong transfer is getting harder because price tag 80 millions euro is overpriced for Man Utd and if the negotiations are still deadlocked then Man Utd will withdraw from this transfer and looking for another players but in the other hand although Barcelona ready to sold De Jong but actually Xavi still want him in the team and if he canceled leave Barcelona then Xavi still need him for next season
It is understood that Erik ten Hag, who worked with De Jong at Ajax and is keen on a reunion. And at the same time, De Jong wants to stay at Barcelona and Xavi want him to stay. But what I think is that if a big-money offer comes in for him they would consider a sale. At least in midfield, Xavi has Busquets, Gavi and Pedri, with Franck Kessie arriving and Nico Gonzalez, so they are still good replacement for him. We know that Barcelona needs the money and not many other players in their squad would be able to rake in as much as De Jong, certainly not one they would be willing to sell. And it is a position where they have some solid cover.
