Frenkie de Jong Hopes to Meet Barcelona in the 2018-19 Champions League Final

DBasia.news –  Successfully getting rid of Real Madrid and Juventus, Frenkie de Jong, Ajax Amsterdam midfielder, hopes to meet Barcelona in the 2018-19 Champions League final. Barcelona will be defended by De Jong next season.

Ajax becomes a giant killer team in the 2018-2019 Champions League. Two favorite teams of champions, Real Madrid and Juventus, they eliminated before their own supporters.

Now, Ajax is the favorite to bring a surprise in the Champions League. Understandably, since FC Porto won the event in 2003-2004, practically no surprise team embraced the trophy.

Even so, there are still three matches that must be faced by Ajax. First, two semi-final matches against Tottenham, and if they qualify for the final, they must face Barcelona or Liverpool.

If Ajax meets Barcelona in the final, Frenkie de Jong will be in the spotlight as he will join the opponent next season. However, De Jong guarantees a professionalism for Ajax.

“I think of the scenario facing Barcelona in the Champions League final. It will be special. However, I will remain professional as an Ajax player,” Frenkie de Jong told FourFourTwo.

“As long as I am an Ajax player, I want Ajax to win. I want to beat Barcelona as we got rid of Real Madrid and Juventus.”

“When I was little, I had watched the Barcelona’s test match. I remember, Ronaldinho was still playing. The game impressed me at the time,” recalled Frengkie de Jong.

Frenkie de Jong is a player who can operate in a number of positions. The Dutch player can play as a defensive midfielder or attack as well.
