DBasia.news –  The former Barcelona striker from the Netherlands, Patrick Kluivert, assesses Frenkie de Jong to have the potential to become a star with Barca.

Barcelona won the hunt for Frenkie de Jong in the 2019 winter transfer market. However, De Jong had just left Ajax Amsterdam at the end of the 2018-2019 season.

Eventually, Frenkie de Jong will strengthen Barcelona for five seasons. De Jong signed a contract that will end in the summer of 2024.

Patrick Kluivert who is also from the Netherlands commented on the purchase of Frenkie de Jong by Barcelona. Kluivert claimed to have sniffed De Jong’s talent since he was at Ajax’s junior team.

“Frankie de Jong is a very skilled player, he always amazes his fans. He is currently 21 years old, but I have been able to see his potential since he played on the Ajax junior team, “said Patrick Kluivert.

“His strength and ability to control the ball are seen when he is given the opportunity to receive the ball and he can immediately determine where the ball will take.”

“In my opinion, he is the right player for Barcelona. He will play in a way that can be enjoyed by Barcelona fans. He is the perfect player to join Barcelona,” concluded Patrick Kluivert.
