Probably one of the biggest clickbaits of all time considering the article ends with him saying "2019 was the best year of my life" lol
Very talented player, would have loved to see him here, wasn't to be unfortunately

Meh - had his chance - spurned it for money. You know ...us... the club who pay mercenaries anything wouldn't meet his demands FFS !! Let him enjoy where he is and if he has any regrets buy and new Lambo or Rolex.....in my opinion you get the chance to come to City - if you don't take it we ain't coming back begging you.....

He chose Barcelona, not Bayern PSG,, or Juve. Based on this season he made the right choice and we didn't.

He won't be cheap, regardless of Barca's possible need to sell him to bring in some cash, that's for sure.Not for what Barca fee will be,it will be a freeki lot of cash,& maybe in a few years when he older he to Jong now.

Plus they've got to pay 50mill a year interest just on that,750/850mill loan,
And if they think Barca past will get them world class players over lower wages
I very much doubt it.

Would be worth it if we could bring back the "when de Jong goes sliding in" chant!
Would be very typical of Barcelona to get rid of a young great player, they would probably sell him for less than what they paid top, and replace him with some cheaper older garbage on high wages. He was incredible at Ajax, but I just can’t see this happening
According to Barça fans, he has been mostly average with them. Maybe it is due to their set up but they are yet to see the player who impressed so much at Ajax.
As it stands, their 86 millions spent on him are another disaster.

What a signing this would be but isn’t he on insane wages

The transfer he wants, plus his wage demands, means we will be nowhere near him in my opinion. The powers t be will be uncovering Fern's replacement, for money that we are willing to spend.

I know I'll probably get hammered for this, but I'd rather sign him than Messi. De Jong is absolute quality and now he's 'lived the dream' he's the sort you could build a midfield around.
