Frenkie de Jong

[Dribble]

seen loads of reports now that Barca would take 70m euros for him? If Bernardo does indeed want to play for Barca then would Pep be tempted by Frenkie again i wonder.

At the most a straight swap, or at a push they buy Bernie for €50m & we buy 27 year old FDJ for €60m.

Having said that, the serious ankle injury he's just suffered will put off most suitors until they get the full lowdown on the extent of the damage. On we move...

All pretty redundant now that he’s broken his ankle.

He could do a better job in the rag midfield,broken ankle and all ..

Would make a summer transfer tricky if it is broken. I don’t know if you can just dislocate you ankle without anything getting fractured.

I do know something about getting your ankle dislocated and fractured playing football as it happened to me when I was 21. Pott’s Fracture, broken in three places. I think I was playing football again within 15 or 16 weeks. I know it wasn’t very long after I had the full leg plaster removed, that was on for 10 weeks. I imagine full length plasters are not common now. Also, he is more likely to have his ankle pinned I would think, if broken.

Didn’t we buy Gundog with an injury?

If we are looking for a grade A midfielder who we could probably get then Frenkie could very well do the trick

Can’t get a game for Barca and the commentator at last nights game against Atletico said ‘The manager just doesn't trust him’ I always thought he was more style over substance.

Barca do have some very good midfielders and I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re saving money on his appearance fee

Grade A?

He hasn't been at that level for years.

A- can play 6 and 8. Clearly not the only player we need.

 

[callumcity]

He’s never been a consistent performer at Barcelona, despite his obvious quality and their fans don’t seem to rate him all too highly.

Gundogan was their best midfielder last season and look how that’s turned out for us bringing him back.

La Liga has gone to the dogs.

Stay clear of any dealings with Farcelona, always seem to pull our pants down.
