Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong has been linked with a departure from the Catalan capital over the last couple of days. The Dutchman has apparently made up his mind amid much speculation and it doesn't look like he'll be turning his back on the club anytime soon.
According to reports, Frenkie de Jong has no intentions of leaving Barcelona. The midfielder wants to continue at Camp Nou.
The story mentions that the former Ajax midfielder is happy with his life in Catalonia, having found a home for himself in Barca's first team. He is said to be keen to continue working hard to help the club overcome their current challenges on the pitch.
Barcelona, on the other hand, reportedly have no problems with Frenkie de Jong's quality. The Catalan giants are said to be convinced of the midfielder's performance even though he's suffered a minor dip in recent weeks.
However, the same source claims that the Blaugrana are not totally against the sale of Frenkie de Jong. Although they're happy with the midfielder, their financial constraints could influence them into parting ways with him if a tempting offer lands on the table.
The story also includes that Barcelona aren't scared of losing the Dutchman. The Catalan giants believe they have enough options to cover the void he will leave in in the squad. The likes of Nico Gonzalez, Pedri, Riqui Puig and Gavi are decent options to strengthen the team in the center of the park.
