Reportedly Man United want to strengthen their midfield by signing Frenkie De Jong.
Man united are aware their midfield is in trouble so Ten Hag is eager to bring in De Jong. But I heard that Barcelona is not yet willing to take it off at a price of 60 million euros. Then Man United added up to 70 million euros. But to date there has been no official decision from Barcelona.
It seems that Barcelona took advantage of this moment to earn money. They tried to shut down the financial crisis that hit them which caused some players to leave and some players to get pay cuts. We see the transfer season is still a little long.

This is stalling progress. I think they know Manchester United financial capacity that’s why they’re increasing the fee because they want to raise funds and lower their wage bill, with the club still struggling financially. It’s unfortunate that Erik ten Hag is hoping to guide Manchester United back to their former glory days and he's looking to bring in some familiar faces to help him, if not I don’t see why Manchester United will want to spend that heavy on just one player when they have many leaking positions that are yet to be fixed in the team.
