21 - Frenkie de Jong

[Windhook]

How much can we get for him you think?

A bit less from the original price we bought him from Ajax, but in this case we are losing someone who can learn from Xavi a lot.

Think United is currently the only club that might pay what Barca paid for him or more seeing how desperately they need a midfielder.

maybe also PSG, their midfield looks always crap when Verratti isnt playing

 

[messi2140]

Fair shout , completely forgot about them.

 

[Horatio]

Don't think Frenkie would want to play for PSG.

Wasn't he on the verge of signing for them until Barto gave him a ridiculous salary ?

That was what was being said but think he always planned on signing for Barca. It has always been his dream club. His parents told him to go for Barca as well if I recall correctly.

His salary is 20m, right?

If those salary "reports" are to believed he is on 12M net I think.

Not sure about de Ligt and Barca being dream club but huge motivation for de Ligt to pick serie A was to develop himself as CB learning from Bonucci and Chiellini. He thought it was best decision for his development as player at the time. I think he always planned to stay only a few years at Juve and then move on. Things are different now as he has stagnated and won't be sought after by clubs as much as before.

Outside of his hustle in defense he very much as well can be an athletic Arthur with his offensive output.

 

[Nazario1985]

I like how people desperately finding intergalactic excuse for this guy and waiting for him to turn WC ..

The latest one I saw " he needs Ansu to be WC because of ... chemestry"

And stop dreaming anyone will put even 50% of what FCB put on him !!! that's not even remotely realistic

No way De Ligt has ?stagnated?. The kid is 20 and a frequent starter at Juventus. Critics are also positive in Italy.

In which we agree, Barca is in no way a dream club in its current state.
