I wish to begin this by saying that although I’m writing the under article, I nonetheless suppose that Chelsea signing Frenkie De Jong this summer season is extremely unlikely for a lot of causes.
Nevertheless, it’s one thing that COULD occur, and is one thing that we all know has most likely already been explored by Chelsea just lately, and might be one thing they are going to proceed to discover.
There’s a very bizarre, and fairly frankly disgraceful state of affairs occurring at Barcelona proper now – they’re persevering with to signal gamers after injecting these monetary levers into the membership, while being in lots of debt and massively struggling.
Not solely does this appear flawed on so many ranges, they’re additionally apparently asking De Jong to take one other pay lower, but they’re nonetheless managing to make massive cash signings this summer season. It’s simply madness.
De Jong after all, is trying round on the cash the membership are spending and questioning why he’s being requested to take a pay lower…. Good query. It appears absurd. I do not know in any respect why any participant would wish to be part of Barcelona proper now and get themselves concerned on this nonsense.
A report from Diario Sport as we speak means that De Jong would solely depart Barcelona for Chelsea fairly than Manchester United, however in the mean time they don’t wish to pay the asking value. However this may very well be a state of affairs that Chelsea look to take advantage of, and one to keep watch over for certain, on the very least.
