The situation of Frankie de Jong remains one of the main themes of the FC Barcelona in this summer transfer market, in which they are close to closing the incorporation of Jules Koundé from Sevilla. The Blaugrana team needs to cut expenses or enter money to be able to settle accounts due to the debts accumulated in previous courses and the investment made in signings. And his name is key in this process.
FC Barcelona was close to selling the footballer to Manchester United, but the player himself has ruled out this possibility because he does not want to leave the club at this time. And that has caused the club to give him an ultimatum: he leaves the club or his salary is lowered, as reported Sports world.
FC Barcelona’s ultimatum to Frenkie de Jong: Lower his salary or he leaves the club
In order to solve the economic problems of the club, and to be able to register all the signings before LaLiga, the Blaugrana team needs to reduce the salary mass of the first team by more than 30 million and, with the case of the Dutchman, they would be asking him to lower the salary to stay in the club. Xavi Hernández is counting on him, but he has that condition.
Frenkie de Jong is in a difficult situation. His salary reduction would be important because he will become one of the players with the highest income in the team due to the contract he signed with Josep María Bartomeu. His decision will be key, although he is not very interested in doing so.
