Where did you see this?
Frenkie De Jong - Part 3?
- Thread starter Berbaclass
- Start date
From looking on twitter it looks like a made up rumour by a small account.
I was sent this by my son:

It's silly season and De Jong is the new Sneijder though.
He will probably leave Barca for free in 21 months.
Koeman on Frenkie de Jong not ready yet: “This is worrying. It's been a very long time”.
“He is improving, but he is still not fit. There is damage to his ankle and he wants to take his time to recover”.

What does he expect? It was a bad injury
Supposedly refusing surgery on his injury against Barcas wishes.
You can get this one to two hundred pages!!! Frenkie is finally coming to Manchester!!
Do we have to keep ten Hag to do it, though?
Ah yes, the mighty transfersdotcom, beacons of knowledge.
Twitter really is a cesspool of shite. Majority of garbage is made up nonsense by some narcissistic nobody, using engagement to validate the fact they actually amount to nothing in the ‘real world’.
He looks so happy
It’s more worrying that he’s allegedly refusing surgery to sort that injury out. If that’s true he’s going to subject himself to constant periods of being out with niggles
Looking like Willem Dafoe.
Nope. Ten Hag will be gone by the time he is available. Probably end up at City or something. Looks like Pep's kind of player.
Perfect for United. Absolutely perfect
His wife doesn’t like Manchester so doubt he’d go to City , its either London or Paris.
What is it with Dutch lads and surgery?!
That would be amazing timing. Ten Hag’s midfield messiah signed after sacking him.
His wifeWho made this up?
It was well reported at the time his wife didn’t want swap Barcelona for Manchester, unsurprisingly.Who made this up?

Untrue. She simply wanted to stay in Barcelona.
Is what Jim Ratcliffe will say
We are the only club who could make that happen.
Having Dutch fam of my own- there might be an element to it of there being a lot of focus on limiting medical intervention if somehow it can be avoided. Unlike here in the US whenever folks are sick it seems docs there are more likely to just tell em to suck it up and take a basic painkiller than the pill pushing of antibiotics, steroids and everything else that happens here. Might just be a more European thing rather than just Dutch though. Partly anecdotal so I'm merely speculating on the why.
I wouldn’t touch him with a barge pole until he can absolutely prove his fitness on the pitch again, not a quick medical as some were suggesting in this thread. That is a nasty injury
Dutch media are mentioning it again. Hag has asked the board for Frenkie.
Board in an orderly fashion please.

Yep there was a Spanish report in Fichajes (sp?) that the BBC gossip page picked up on.
Big day next summer!
Oh go on then...
Here we go again...
At a certain point it just becomes harassment.
Can't help but feel EtH asking Ratcliffe about FdJ is a ruse by the Glazers to get Sheikh Jassim to come in with a renewed mega-bid.
Also on Ten Hag(and our recruitment team) that once he didnt get De Jong, his next options in midfield were Casemiro, Mount and Ugarte, 3 players who are absolutely nothing like De Jong.
They were club signings not his signings. He only wanted de Jong and never got him. There isn’t another FDJ.
Having deJong trying to keep possession alongside Bruno who insists on giving it away would be interesting
It would unlock ten Hag. We’ve let him down, badly.Having deJong trying to keep possession alongside Bruno who insists on giving it away would be interesting
He'll be there until 2026 at 29 years old. We'll see if he signs a new deal with Barca or looks to move on a free, I doubt we're in the running and ETH will be long gone.
He doesn't want to play for you, Erik!
If this is even remotely true, what a sad state of affairs.
