Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions
Frenkie de Jong is still not fully recovered... And he is making tons of money which is going up to 25 million euros a year with bonuses. He said that people were wrong and he was actually making much less than that but I don't know.

Isn't it bad to pay this injury-prone player this much money?
I mean he is talented okay but he can't play regularly during a season. The team can't get enough efficiency from him comparing to the money he earns. While Barcelona is trying to raise funds, I think they should consider selling him or cutting his salary seriously.As far as I know, Barcelona has tried to do that and even an agreement has been made between Barcelona and Man United, but unfortunately, De Jong insists he doesn't want to leave Barcelona. I even remember Barcelona threatening to cut his salary if he still refused to accept the offer from Man United, but again the threat did not make De Jong change his decision.
But it's such a waste for Barcelona to keep De Jong even longer. His wages are high, even after he agreed to decrease them with Barcelona in order to extend his contract. If we always missed him in any season due to his injuries, it's a loss to always pay his expensive wages.
I hope Barcelona will sell him instead of keeping him. He was rarely contributing to the club and this is a sense reason to sell him. I hope he will also understand the situation.
The last time I heard that if De Jong has agreed to be sold, as long as there was no improvement his condition.
