Manchester United are reportedly becoming increasingly confident of winning the race to sign Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong during next summer’s transfer window.
According to SPORT, the Red Devils will be hopeful of signing the Netherlands international next year.
Frenkie de Jong has established himself as one of the hottest properties in the market. While he has been one of the most consistent performers for the Catalan giants, the Dutchman remains a potential candidate to help them balance their books.
The 25-year-old has enjoyed a superb campaign at the 2022 FIFA World Cup with the Netherlands. Meanwhile, he remains on the radar of Manchester United.
The Mancunian giants desperately chased the midfielder in the summer transfer window. They wanted to reunite de Jong with Erik ten Hag at Old Trafford.
Man United believe that the Blaugrana will try to increase the price by tying De Jong to a new contract. But the new deal will see him agree to pocket lower wages.
