Just when you thought the Frenkie de Jong saga had come to an end over the summertime – it looks set to explode into life once again.
de Jong was one of the headline acts of the summer window, with Man United desperate to sign him, Barca desperate to sell him and the player himself desperate to stay.
Ultimately, de Jong got his way, despite late interest from Chelsea, and a Barcelona player he remains – but for how long? That’s the question being asked by the Spanish press.
According to SPORT, de Jong himself is now kicking up a fuss. The report claims that he is now ‘disgusted’ with his situation at the Nou Camp.
de Jong has been used sparingly by manager Xavi this campaign, despite his insistence that de Jong was a key figure of the squad and his desire was always to keep him around.
It’s left the Spanish media asking whether de Jong could be set to push towards the Barcelona exit door come the opening of the summer transfer window.
We don’t know what to believe, as was the case over the summer, but you can’t help but feel that both parties would be better off if they were to part ways…
