Does anyone still think he's leaving Barca? Oh, boy!

The best of Barca is clearly Pedri. He's a step above in quality everyone else. Real world-class.
It will be the same this summer window that FDJ wants to stay at Barcelona because that’s his dream, Barcelona found a way to solve their problem without selling FDJ and Xavi isn’t interested to let him go. We should just create new thread of ‘’FDJ alternative’’ because this one ain’t gonna happen.
Yeah couldn't agree more shut this down
A perfect example of how good de Jong is. Barcas midfield completely falls apart without him. Netherlands, too. This is a man who conned the world into thinking Donny was a good midfielder.
He is my first choice but sadly we aren't his so focus on a Barella/Bennacer/Mac Allister
Dont do this to yourself mate
Things are happening
The Daily Express is quite possibly the worst source in the history of bad sources.
FDJ is one of those situations where we need Murtough to step in as ETH’s boss and tell him that enough is enough and we need to look elsewhere
Yeah I know. My post is tongue in cheek- it’s just funny at this point.
Hello there. It’s great to be back.
I'm sure an article that includes five adverts and an additional pop up ad hasn't just been created to garner clicks from desperate Muppets like you and I.
But, screw it, the Frenkie Express has a new engine baby! Choo Choo motherfeckers!
Forgot IndyKaila and Tancredi Palmieri already?
Only way I see this happening is if they sign Neves from Wolves as a cheap replacement.
There have been some random links recently involving a swap deal with Fati, which would be one of the stranger transfers you’ll see.

Yeah, I think he wants to come here but his back pay is the issue. Oh man. I just can’t.
Time is elapsing.
He ain’t coming. Have you seen us.
We’d have to pay him £375k we give David DeFa*ny

Maybe, but at least this thread isn’t all doom and gloom! There’s always hope when you’re a muppet!
"David De Fanny". Class. This place is wonderful.
I like FdJ...feel like we're still missing some players with real mental toughness about them though. With FdJ, although he's obviously talented, he kind of reminds me of Sancho in that neither of them ever grab the game by the scruff of the neck and make things happen. All great players do that fairly regularly.

No more please. This pointless saga completely derailed our summer last year.
We simply don't have any more time to waste playing "Will he, won't he?" with the likes of De Jong, Thiago, Fabregas, Sneijder and countless others.

Xavi doesn't want Neves.
How about Silva?
I’m not sure it did. Casemiro was already in the works, we were in for both of them. Martinez was signed when it became clear Timber wouldn’t. Malacia and Eriksen were signed fairly swiftly. Only the Antony deal dragged out, and stopped up buying the striker we needed.
What? Wait?!! Did someone just say De Jong might be coming to United?
I think Frenkie prevented Casemiro from being signed earlier, which led to the delay in the decision for Antony too. It could have been handled much better instead of us panicking after a dreadful start to the season.
Basically unless De Jong hands in a transfer request, I'd like to stay far away this summer.
Bernardo? Xavi loves him and he would be one of few players that could convince Xavi to let Frenkie go. But there hasn't been any news of Silva for months now. One reason is, that Frenkie plays his best season so far. I see the possibility of Frenkie leaving this summer much lower than the last one.
Yes it was him I meant. The reason I ask is due to how much Silva clearly wanted the move. A lot of this season he has looked like he didnt want to be in City anymore and thus I thougth the posibility of Barca going back in might be there.
Fair enough. No arguments here!
Mundo Deportivo
"The Barça club knows that it must cut 200 million in expenses to be able to strengthen next season."
Translation Daily Express
"According to Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona know they must recoup around £176million before they can make any new signings this summer."
Cut vs recoup and from there we invented a story.

Is that not the same thing?

Recoup implies that Barcelona need to sell for €200M.
Lowering the wage bill adds other options such as salaries and amortizaciones.
Beyond that, this year the odds of FDJ leaving are minimal. Also, the price would not be €85M like last year. This year €120M+. Xavi considers him untouchable.
Yup, it’s Daily Star level
God help us all, for we are heading into the valley of death.
Yeah, I know. I do t expect it to happen realistically
Whenever I watch him, I get this Sancho-type vibe: Nice, graceful, but too soft to impose himself on the EPL
All aboard!
Choo choo choo choo!
Even if Barca had to sell players they probably aren't going to sell the guy who's become first name on the teamsheet.
