This deal would've been wrapped up weeks ago had I not watched a de Jong compilation video on YouTube.

You need to write a book...diary of the lads
Can someone translate?
Seems that is does, see above.
Barcelona are insects. Parasites
Seems that we've restructured our offer so Barca can pay him off but we now just need Barca to tell him to feck off in order to seal the move.
I'm sure this will get done once he gets the direct communication from the club that he should go.

2 Things....
1st adding to what you are saying, these stats were achieved playing for a dominant Ajax in a relatively weak league (strength in depth) and Barcelona a dominant team in a relatively weak league (strength in depth).....
2nd thing Carrick should not be used as an example of a midfielder to aspire to.... he was bang average and way over hyped on here, the guy was on his way out of the club his performances were so poor until we had a defensive crisis and he had to step in as a CB, admittedly after that reprieve his performances stabilised but still he was, meh at best, he was just slightly better than other bang average midefielders we had at the time, he was fortunate to play in front of a great defence otherwise he would have been exposed more, the worst sideways and backpass merchant I have ever seen play for us, and gave numerous goals away passing to attackers outside our own box,
Flying off for their tour?
If he leaves his contract is cancelled. That’s why he wants the money owed before leaving.
They’ve got a spider infestation
I was born to muppet.
Which is clearly spinning a web..

FC Barcelona's official twitter account posted an emoji of a Mosquito at 10:20 on July 14th 2022
He cant say he wants to come here, it would cost him 17million euros.
WHY ARE PEOPLE SAYING IT'S A SPIDER? 
Well of course, his contract going forward is cancelled, not going backwards! The monies owed is for services already rendered.
Are there many six legged spiders flying around with their wings in Ireland? Sounds scary, I thought they only had them in Australia.
Haha
AWB will be joining Barca in a swap deal for De Jong
This has to be the weirdest transfer saga ever. As soon as there's any positive tweet, these Spanish jurnos come flooding with the same ultra negative tweets like FDJ doesn't wanna leave Barca at any cost. This Romero guy was claiming initially that it was 95% done and look at his tweets now. Who the feck should we believe? It's hilarious and sad at the same time.
There could be the possibility that in reality he actually does not want to join. Griezmann, Dybala etc. It wouldn't be the first time in recent history we pursued players who in the end didn't decide to join us.
Insane that people are trying to tell us he not a good player, and it's the elephant in the room, trying to convince us they not be any good for us.
When it's the mew manager who has used him before to great success, who driving this signing, I think we bypass the stats and stick to how the manager see about using him.
He night and day ahead of anyone we have got in the midfield so not even sure their is a debate around it.

Kinda looks like this: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Maybe we've got them demoralised.

How the feck is that a spider? it has wings. It's clearly a butterfly. They have butterflies in their stomach thinking about Frenkie leaving.
THEY. ARE. WORRIED.
THEY. ARE. WORRIED.
It's not money owed legally now. He renegotiated his contract for a salary reduction for year 1 and 2, with year 3, 4 and 5 having all the extra money to pay him back. If he's sold then legally he probably doesn't have a claim to it, but he obviously thinks, morally, he should be paid what he gave up.
Dembele's nickname is 'Mosquito'
SSN just saying that "any suggestions Frenkie De Jong 'doesn't want to come' are FALSE.
fecking rollercoaster.

One would think that accepting an offer is a pretty direct way of telling someone that they need to go.
Learn to appreciate actual football and stop playing FIFA.
Not people... Person.
FdJ is an annoying clingy fecker who won't get the message. Just keeps buzzing around when Barca want to move on to new fellas. #hotgirlsummer #slag
That's a beetle, not a spider.
Stop calling it a spider.
Stop calling it a spider.
I do reckon if that was the case, with a new manager we would have moved on. Im certain that ETH is convinced we can get him and thus the higher ups are too.
I think its a position where FDJ knows that Barca want him out, and wont budge until hes paid. Barca know United want him and trying to get as much money as possible. United want him, but know Barca are in the shit and wont over pay.
I reckon we had a valuation but havent changed it much, just the guaranteed monies that will go to Barca (so they can use that to pay off)
Think all parties probably want this resolved asap to move on, but its the haggling to try get the best for each party, and each one have called the bluff of the others. If we have in fact agreed both guaranteed and add-ons, then I reckon we will get FDJ within a week or two (because it will allow Barca to pay him off to leave). They will be in a complete shit position now if FDJ stays given the players they are bringing in or have brought in.
But his new contract is structured so that the 17m is loaded onto his wages for the next 4 years. So if he leaves now he gets none of it. That’s why he effectively saying if you want me out of the club you need to give me 17m now.
