Oh cool we're at that point of the saga where folk blame his fiancée for ruining his career again.

Now, I don't believe anything that this chancer says. But the muppet in me wants to.I'm all aboard silly season train.
DK Reports on Twitter - called the Cavani to Valencia deal 2hrs before Fab did. Most likely he's throwing shite at the wall so something gotta stick hasn't it.
He's claiming that a Memphis Depay deal is going through at €10M and that will pay some of Frenkie's deferred wages & has been banging the drum that Frenkie to United is a done deal. We all know that it's bollocks but who's staying on the Frankie train with me?
Choo choo, mate. Choo fecking choo.
He could be a good player but perhaps he doesn’t have the elite mentality to back it up. Do not want anymore. He can stay there, enjoy the sun and the bench and rake in the money

Where’s his tweets about FDJ and Depay?
Well I this they were quite sure of him doing that , they also were quite lightweight in terms of options last year.
I'm pretty sure that they'd rather play both them young kids and kessie ahead of frenkie for the time being.
Of course, but let's enjoy the ride.
This whole thing has taken so long that we're already repeating ourselves.
Like a terrible soap opera that ran its course years ago.
Whatever it is, he is beyond help. I hope we get another midfielder next year. No point in getting another weak character in
Said this before but he is extremely whipped by his girlfriend and she loves Barcelona.
He deletes the tweets that he gets wrong so won’t be surprised if he’s deleted them already.
That's right. Xavi had to use him to reach the top4 and he was our best player during season's second half, but didn't extend his contract. Barca expected him to leave as a free agent until his agent called again and said Dembele wanted to stay. So Laporta made him a new, lower offer. Take it or leave it. He thought about it, was even unemployed for some weeks, but signed in the end.
Just stop already
I'm genuinely at the point where I'd be disappointed if we brought him in now. Unless this whole thing about him keeping quiet has been so he doesn't have to give up money he's earned, and he intended to join us once it was all cleared up...
Why don't we get one in next 4 days, can't have another season of lacking midfield control
Nah he has no intention of doing that
Jesus some of the comments over last page or so are…weird
There are some strange folks in these parts boarding on incel like

Why mate? I know people who are personally very close to Frenkie and he is extremely caring about her and her ‘carreer’ in Barcelona.
He really doesnt want to leave Barca.
A guy caring about his fiancé. Stop the press!
Whatever happens, I don't think that nigh on 1800 pages of bickering drivel will make him a better player or person if he comes to us or a worse one if he stays at Barca.
I keep changing my mind on what we need
So you’re admitting that what Im saying is true? He wont come cause his fiance doesnt want to come, simple as that.
Love. Love is all we need
Frenkie is our best midfielder by far. LvG his systems basically depends on Frenkie so he will go to the world cup even if he is a sub at Barcelona. LvG will make an exception for him since the difference in quality between Frenkie and the next in line is huge. LvG might even say it is also a positive since he would be well rested and has a point to prove...
He isn't whipped because he cares about his fiance's wishes, so no, you're wrong
Yes he is. He is PRO footballer and extremely good at that. He should prioritise his own carreer above his fiances one as she will have all the time in the world to build one when she’s 33 and loaded. He’s whipped.
Any sensible guy would go to a team where he would be a star and the main starter under a coach he knows and get paid boatloads of money.
You don't get to tell them how they should live their life as a couple, though
We need a MFer, winger and CF (and other positions less so).
- Midfield (three) - Casemiro, Fred, McT, Eriksen, Bruno, Dvdb and some youth options
- Wing (two) - Rashford, Sancho, Elanga, Garnacho (and Martial can play wide)
- CF (one) - Martial, Ronaldo (aging, may well be off), Rashford (can’t play as a 9)
Firstly, speculation. Says it all.
Secondly she posted that she loves the city on Insta. That’s hardly a secret. Nor does it mean she wouldn’t follow his elsewhere if he has to move. I’d guess he earns a fair bit more than her sothat would presumably be a consideration.
The #21 shirt is available too. Wish he’d just grow some balls and leave Barcelona. Woman are too controlling over our decisions, 4-5 years in Manchester and then you can go back to a sunny country with a bigger bank balance.
Number 9 is a problem but without an FDJ type there is a serious lack of midfield control
Obviously I don’t but I find this entire situation bizarre. He has a god given talent which millions dream of and in my opinion you should make the most out of it. It’s clear that the board wants him out and Xavi wants to form a Spanish core at Barca. If he caves on the money they OWE him just to stay in Barcelona because your fiance wants to, then yes, in my opinion you’re whipped. Doesn’t matter, some guys like that.
Is anyone even suggesting that? People are just saying he has a weak mindset which is true. His girlfriend has all the time in the world to enjoy Barcelona's sights after his short playing career is over. Being a footballer is a very, very tiny window and most footballers don't become anything afterwards since they don't have the skills. In short, it's incredibly bad move for him, but I don't care since as I said - we do not need these types of players here. We need people like Antony or Martinez who will fight for this club, not some spineless individuals.
They resigned him though, he was a free agent. This would be a contract renegotiation and is subject to other rules under Spanish law.
I don't think I want FDJ. That's some serious lack of ambition. He's content with sitting on the bench with reduced wages and fan abuse on top of that. Proper weirdo.
Yeah we can't roll out the red carpet much more, yes we don't have Champions League but shouldn't be everything to him
I think your autocorrect was a bit broken so I've fixed your post. No need to thank me.
Genuinely pathetic from Xavi. I obviously want him here, but I feel bad for him being overlooked for the aging, managers mate.
