Barcelona is not prepared to meet the demands of Frenkie de Jong’s contract

One of the most complicated issues that Barcelona is currently facing is Frenkie de Jong’s contractual situation. The Dutch midfielder has previously rejected the possibility of renewing and, with his current contract expiring at the end of next season, preparations are being made to put him on the market.

In recent months, de Jong has lost a lot of prominence at Barcelona. He is no longer a regular starter, and when he has played, his performances have flattered to the point of deceiving. Therefore, the club’s bosses are no longer willing to do whatever is necessary to secure its future, according to MD.

Barcelona hoped to agree on a salary reduction with De Jong as part of contract negotiations, but the player himself does not want to earn less money. However, the club will not budge on this unless they improve their performance for the rest of the season, meaning the pressure is on.

If de Jong is on Barcelona’s transfer list before next summer, there would be no shortage of interest: several Premier League clubs have been linked, as well as Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain. Right now it seems more likely that he will leave.
