Barcelona 'open to selling Manchester United-linked Frenkie de Jong'

Barcelona are reportedly open to selling Frenkie de Jong during next summer's transfer window.

The Netherlands international has again been an important player for the Catalan giants during the 2021-22 campaign, making 19 appearances in all competitions, contributing one goal and two assists.

Manchester United, Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain have been credited with an interest in the central midfielder ahead of the winter transfer market.

According to Marca, Barcelona are not actively looking to part with De Jong, but the club 'would consider a major offer', as a big sale would ease their financial problems.

The report claims that Xavi's side are unlikely to allow the Dutchman to leave in January but could be persuaded to sell him during next summer's transfer window.

De Jong, who has a contract at Camp Nou until June 2026, has scored 10 times and registered 14 assists in 112 appearances for Barcelona since making the move from Ajax in July 2019.
