Frenkie will move in the summer to Barcelona, but already signed his contract there yesterday
If the deal goes ahead it would make De Jong, who made his international debut last August, the most expensive Dutch player in history, surpassing Virgil van Dijk’s €84 million transfer from Southampton to Liverpool a year ago.De Jong had been widely expected to move to Paris for €75 million, but the Telegraaf and Spanish media reported late on Tuesday that PSG had dropped out of the race. Juventus and Manchester City were also rumoured to be chasing his signature.
De Jong signed for Ajax in 2015 from Willem II and rapidly evolved into a key component of the club’s revival under Erik ten Hag, as a left-sided or defensive midfielder.
In December Ajax reached the last 16 of the Champions League for the first time since 2006.De Jong’s rapidly rising status belies the fact he has made just 65 appearances for the first team.
He has five international caps, having made his debut as a substitute in a friendly match against Peru in August.
He was ranked 92nd in The Guardian’s most recent list of the 100 best footballers in the world.
his 2 teams where frenkie played in the youth RKC and Willem II will get respectively 4 and 6 million (which is also good to help these teams out of debts)
