Some around the club would also seriously consider a big offer for Frenkie de Jong, with teenagers Pedri, Gavi and Nico all needing space to develop in midfield.

The hope around the Nou Camp remains that Newcastle United, or a similar club with loads of money they are keen to spend, will help them out.
Lol that’s it from the Athletic btw. Bit of a stretch to link him to Arsenal.

Dream signing. He would thrive in Xhaka's position. He is totally misused at Barca. When you use him in a pivot like ours, he's absolutely world class. He's shown that at Ajax and at the Dutch NT.

Not worth looking at until we get CL. Hence why not wasting 45M on Bruno in January makes sense.

You get CL and suddenly top players like De Jong, Tielemans, Rice, Henderson and Gnabry are available.

In terms of talent his by far the best midfield we’ve been linked with.

Feels like we’ll only go big in one position though. If we get Vlahovic at 60M+ I’m expecting a midfielder to be limited to 45M.

Van De Beek doesn't play and it's not been disclosed why, so not sure how it can be concluded that he's a bad player.

This isn't happening anyways, wack rumour pulled from thin air.

Hah thats such bollocks, they can hope all they want that Newcastle are interested but De Jong to Newcastle 😭

Would love to see how a weak manager like theres tries to convince Frenkie De Jong that hes already building around him by signing Chris Wood..

The Athletic article was written on the 5th, this football london article that cited the Athletic as a source was written on the 6th, so before Chris Wood.

It's pure nonsense basically because Arsenal are sitting at 4th/5th atm, so these sort of links will keep coming.

As somebody who watched Frenkie since he was 16 I can guarantee you he will transform our midfield. The only reason we could get him in the summer is literally the stars aligning in the Universe to gift us our midfield solution.

- Barca finances in the mud
- emergence of young superstar midfielders (Pedri, Nico, Gavi)
- Barca using him wrong for 2 seasons
- Media constantly going in on him because of his price and wages combined with mediocre performances

This guy is the perfect 6, strong, mobile, tactically able (can even play CB), dribbling and passing ability. Who would use him as a box to box or the most forward midfielder? Barca did, to keep playing captain Busquets as a 6.

Picture us playing Xhaka or Partey in the Ödegaard role. Would be a train wreck right? That is what Barca have been doing and its a testament to Frenkie’s ability that he has been doing ok. Imagine him as the first midfielder in front of the defense, with the mobile Partey next to him. We would be able to play through the press in midfield, he can actually turn with a man behind him unlike Xhaka. Its his specialty. If you can’t see how this would be the best signing since probably somebody like Cazorla you have not been paying attention.
