The Frenkie de Jong transfer saga remains unresolved, heading into the final few days of the transfer window. Manchester United had reached an agreement with Barcelona to sign the player, but he refused to join them despite having the chance to reunite with Erik Ten Hag.
Now, the midfielder's agents have arrived in Barcelona for crucial talks about his future. Barcelona want him to take a pay cut up to 40% if he wants to stay. However, with up to €20 million already deferred in payments to him, he is unwilling to negotiate a further pay cut with the club.
Frenkie de Jong set for important talks with Barcelona over future
According to Sport, there are two options placed in front of the Netherlands international. He can either take a pay cut and stay at the club, or he can leave.
If that is the case, then Barcelona will try to agree a deal with either Manchester United or Chelsea for Frenkie de Jong. Both clubs are interested in signing the Dutchman, but are on standby given his current situation.
Recent reports suggest that Liverpool have also tabled a £60 million offer for the player. Whether or not it will be accepted remains to be seen. However, this means that there are more clubs becoming aware of the situation, and could act on it if the opportunity arises.
