Frenkie de Jong has recently discussed his Barcelona future amid transfer links with Manchester United.
The Dutch midfielder is once again being linked with a move to Old Trafford, two years after United agreed a fee with Barcelona to sign him only for the deal to fall through. De Jong knows United boss Erik ten Hag well from their time at Ajax together where the Eredevise side reached the Champions League semi-finals in 2019.
ManchesterWorld claims that United have made a tentative approach to ascertain De Jong's availability. It is said that the Reds are open to a deal if a fee around the £30million-£40m mark can be agreed, although new Barca boss Hansi Flick is reportedly keen to keep him.
And the 27-year-old has reiterated his happiness to remain in the Catalan capital. De Jong told Mundo Deportivo in June that he had a good conversation with Flick who reportedly wants him to play a key role for the La Liga club next season.
"Staying at Barca? Yes, I’m very happy in Barcelona with my family, for sure," he said. "Hansi Flick wants me to be key? I talked to him, it was good. After the European Championship, we will see how he is doing."
Barca president Joan Laporta has also insisted that De Jong is happy to stay and does not want to leave despite interest from elsewhere. "The last thing he would want would be to leave Barcelona," the 61-year-old confirmed. "He has told me more than once, that he is delighted here.
"We have margin. We are delighted with him. I'm not worried about anyone and if someone wants to leave, we can't go against a player's will. But I think everyone wants to stay and we want everyone we have to stay. We don't want any of them to leave, because no team in history has been a flash in the pan."
