Frankie de Jong was not satisfied with the role and playing time, Joan Laporta was willing to sell the midfielder in whom the club invested 86,000,000 euros only for a good offer arrived. First, Manchester United was interested, then Chelsea, however, all the obstacles to the realization of the job were not removed. Either they didn’t offer as much as the Catalan club expected or the Dutchman didn’t like the offer. Frankie de Jong is going. Frankie de Jong is staying. And the tension continues from one transfer window to the other. Just when it seemed that Barcelona was on the right track with the Dutchman, that everything turned from bad to good and that he was ready to extend his contract, he changed his mind. Mundo Deportivo reports that the Blaugrana presented him with a contract proposal three months ago, but there has been no response.A message to Xavi’s successor: ‘There won’t be any big signings’Again, the Dutch midfielder hesitates, again unsure of what he wants. Does he see himself at Camp Nou in the future? For now, things are not moving from the deadlock, he is the one who will have to break and declare himself by June, and a split is not ruled out. Deco’s proposal for Frankie was: a three-year deal, plus no pay cut. It will remain unchanged and until the end of the current year he will be compensated for the part he gave up during the Corona epidemic. De Jong came to Barcelona in the summer of 2019, and the very next day he signed a new contract according to which he is tied to the Spanish champion until 2026. Barcelona will be able to count on a good financial compensation, but they would prefer to keep the midfield in the coming years.LA LIGA – MATCHDAY 24FridayCadiz – Real Betis 0-2 (0-1)/Willian Jose 6, Fornals 46/Saturday16:00: (2.30) Alaves (3.40) Villareal (3.35)18:15: (1.90) Sociedad (3.45) Osasuna (4.80)20:30: (1.48) Real Madrid (4.70) Girona (7.25)23:00: (2.70) Las Palmas (3.15) Valencia (2.95)Sunday16:00: (2.25) Getafe (3.20) Celta (3.70)18:15: (2.35) Mallorca (3.10) Rayo Vallecano (3.30)20:30: (3.50) Sevilla (3.45) Atl.Madrid (2.10)23:00: (1.20) Barcelona (7.25) Granada (12.0)Monday21:00: (4.90) Almeria (3.60) Ath.Bilbao (1.75)***odds are subject to change***
