Manchester United Transfer Update: Frenkie de Jong
Renowned transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has provided the latest insight into Manchester United’s pursuit of Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong. Contrary to previous speculation, Romano confirms that there are currently no talks between United, De Jong, and Barcelona regarding a potential transfer.
The complexities of De Jong’s β¬400m release clause and Β£606k-a-week salary have seemingly halted United’s interest. Instead, the club is now exploring alternative midfield options, with Paris Saint-Germain’s Manuel Ugarte emerging as a priority target.
While De Jong remains an admired player at United, a transfer appears unlikely this summer. Romano’s update provides clarity on the situation, and fans will now focus on other potential signings as the transfer window unfolds. United’s midfield rebuild continues, with the club seeking the right talent to bolster their squad.
