Monday afternoon deal- Man United are planning a ‘courageous move’ to sign £150M team leader who is a fan of Paul scholes – Erik Ten Hag looks to make history and build a legacy as big as Alex Ferguson as he believes he could pull the deal off
If the latest reports in the Spanish media are anything to go by then Man Utd are clear to finally sign Frenkie De Jong.
Last month, we covered a story via Sport claiming that Barca are willing to listen to proposals for the £85million-rated Dutchman and the Red Devils are prepared to sign him.
Yesterday, the Catalan media outlet covered a story suggesting that Man Utd are currently clear to sign De Jong as they are the only club still interested in getting him.
French champions, Paris Saint-Germain, now plan to focus most of the financial resources on replacing Kylian Mbappe, strengthening the wings and reinforcing the defense.
Therefore, Sport claim that the Ligue 1 giants ‘will not knock on’ the doors of Barca to present a proposal for De Jong.
Bayern Munich were in the lime light as well but as per the report, with the appointment of Manchester City legend, Vincent Kompany, the Bundesliga side’s interest in the former Ajax midfielder ‘has been frozen’.
De Jong became a superstar in world football under the management of current Man Utd boss, Erik ten Hag, who recently opened up about his wish to reunite with the Barca star (Sky Sports).
