Barcelona’s midfield maestro Frenkie de Jong is drawing renewed attention from Manchester United, and the Catalan club is holding out for a hefty sum of over €60 million for his transfer, per multiple recent reports.

Despite securing the signing of Dani Olmo from RB Leipzig, Barcelona still faces significant tasks ahead with the transfer window looming.

Financial constraints to sign Nico Williams may force the club to part ways with de Jong, and Manchester United is once again expressing interest in acquiring the talented midfielder.

As the top earner at Barcelona, de Jong’s departure would lead to substantial wage bill reductions for the club. With Barcelona now open to the possibility of a transfer, Manchester United has emerged as a potential buyer once more.

The English club, which has already made multiple signings and is on the verge of completing more deals, may face a challenge meeting Barcelona’s asking price of over €60 million.

Manchester United had previously pursued de Jong in 2022, shortly after the appointment of manager Erik ten Hag.

Although their earlier attempts were unsuccessful, their interest in the Dutch international persists. However, the significant asking price could pose a hurdle for Manchester United.
