Barcelona adviser Enric Masip has hit back a Frenkie de Jong‘s claims of the board trying to discredit and sell him over the summer.
De Jong also accused the board of leaking details of his contract to the press.
Masip, an adviser to president Joan Laporta and a member of the sporting committee, has responded via Twitter.
Masip say that Laporta was the one who fought the most for the continuity of the Dutch international and that “he never considered selling him — NEVER… even with the club’s delicate [financial] situation.”
He added: “I can say with knowledge of the facts that the person from the club who has most defended the continuity of Frenkie de Jong has been one person who has a first and last name: Joan Laporta.”
