New "Manchester United" coach Erik ten Hag continues to aim to have Frenkie de Jong in his team approaching the next season. Journalist Fabrizio Romano reports that "Manchester United" has started negotiations with "Barcelona" for a possible acquisition of the Dutch player. The "Red Devils" are expected to make their first offer soon. "Barcelona" is looking to get around 85 million euros for F. de Jong. At the moment, the situation is that former E. ten Hag protege at "Ajax" club is not eager to leave the Catalan club and wants to play in the Champions League, but the challenging financial situation of "Barcelona" could change the situation. The coach of the Catalan club, Xavi, is not inclined to bid farewell to F. de Jong, but would understand the situation if it were to happen, as announced by F. Romano. "Barcelona" currently cannot register free agents Franck Kessie and Andreas Christensen due to the financial situation.
