Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong’s father has spoken about rumours linking his son to Manchester United.
Spanish media reports intimated that De Jong may be among a number of players available to purchase in January, as the club looks to reduce its debts and build a winning team under newly appointed boss Xavi Hernandez.
De Jong has been at Barca since 2019, when he joined from Ajax, and he is also being linked with a move to Bayern Munich.
Speaking to Dutch publication Algemeen Dagblad, John de Jong spoke about those links to Bayern Munich and Manchester United: “It’s often bad weather there.
“Of course it’s about football, but it does matter.
“Of course I know that Barcelona needs money and a great offer for Frenkie could help, but I don’t see it happening anytime soon.
“Although, the five top European clubs have all called.”
