Frenkie de Jong

Had a snippet today that they’ve asked for 2 players plus circa 40m, it isn’t happening on those terms, considering the two touted, one is Laporte, the other my boy who is the heart of the team for me, can’t even say his name…. If we deal on that, then despite Haaland, absolute mugs, anyway, thankfully we aren’t that stupid!

Dickheads.
 

Xavi:
For me [De Jong] is a very important player. He's almost always been a starter, except when I've rotated [the team]. He is a fundamental player, but then there is the financial situation of the club.

Not just with Frenkie, I mean in general. He's a player I like a lot, but we'll see how the situation is.

The circumstances of the club dictate [what we do]. I play an important part in decision making. From there, we depend on the financial situation. In a few days we have to know where we are, to be able to plan for next season.
 
Got the rags written all over this, I think. Can’t say I’m too bothered. He’s a risk, never fulfilled the promise he showed at Ajax. Risks should cost less, but looks like Barca want upwards of £65m for him.

Won’t grieve this one if we can still secure another good target at 6 and possibly a longer term Gundo replacement.
 
Rags looking favourite if FDJ just wants the money and nothing else.

Perhaps Barca's valuation was what tolmie was saying made the deal " difficult " ?

I think he could probably have said " fucking impossible ".
