DBasia.news – The former Dutch national team player, Clarence Seedorf revealed that Frenkie de Jong would face tremendous pressure when he joins Barcelona.
In the transfer market last winter, Barcelona officially brought De Jong from Ajax Amsterdam. The 21-year-old will officially join next season.
“When young players leave Ajax, they must immediately adjust to the new culture in their country of destination. Besides that, they also have to adapt to the new style of play at the club, “said Clarence Seedorf.
“They will face enormous pressure. But, I am sure he can be able to face the great pressure and he will achieve great success with Barcelona, ”he added.
Even though they already brought in Frenkie de Jong, Barcelona is still eyeing other Ajax players. Namely Matthijs de Ligt. Ajax’s sporting director has admitted to resigning to the future of Matthijs de Ligt and is ready to sell him in the transfer market next summer.
A brilliant combination between Frenkie de Jong and Matthijs de Ligt managed to bring De Godenzonen to the quarter-finals of the Champions League. They defeated the surviving champion, Real Madrid in the last 16.
