United finally made Frankie de Jong’s official offer

By db-admin

DBasia.news – Manchester United finally made an official offer to Barcelona which was of course aimed at bringing Frenkie de Jong to Old Trafford.

Manchester United have been linked with De Jong since earlier this month. Erik ten Hag as the new manager seems to want to make his former team at Ajax Amsterdam the general of the Red Devils’ midfield.

De Jong himself was initially not enthusiastic about responding to rumors of Manchester United’s interest. He admitted that he still wanted to continue his career at Barcelona.

But the situation changed rapidly. De Jong’s stance is reportedly starting to waver and is now ready to move to England.

This was responded quickly by Manchester United. According to various sources, the English giants have made an official offer of 60 million euros with an additional 10 million euros in additional bonuses to make this transfer happen.

But Barcelona flatly refused this offer. El Barca hopes to sell the Dutchman for 100 million euros.

Despite having refused, Barcelona and Manchester United are still continuing negotiations. Both parties are still looking for a suitable price.

It is not yet known what steps Manchester United will take. Including a number of players in the offer package can be an option taken.

On the other hand, Barcelona are also aware that it is difficult to sell De Jong at the desired price. It is not impossible that they will accept the next offer from Manchester United.

Barcelona also needs fresh funds in a short time. Xavi Hernandez’s side are pressed for time to complete the transfer of Robert Lewandowski and find a replacement for De Jong.
