I don’t think I’ll see Frankie The Dragon playing for Manchester United.
The Spanish media El Mundo reported on the 2nd (Korea time) that “De Jong, who has been living in Barcelona for six years, has yet to make an achievement worthy of his high salary. He needs to restore his confidence.”
Dutch midfielder De Jong drew attention by playing for Ajax from 2016 to 2019. He has grown into a midfielder who is drawing attention from all over Europe due to his build-up ability through high-quality foot skills, quick feet, and physical strength.
Beyond the Netherlands’ Eredivisie, De Jong’s stellar performance continued at the UEFA Champions League. Spain’s prestigious Barcelona has also shown interest in his unstoppable growth.
In the end, Barcelona paid 86 million euros (about W125.6 billion) for Theyong in the winter of 2019. Theyong’s performance continued at Barcelona as well. The problem is that Barcelona set Theyong’s salary so high that the cost of maintaining him was enormous.
His salary was considered a headache especially because Barcelona’s 토토사이트 꽁머니 financial situation was not good last season including salary cap and unpaid salary. In response, Barcelona made a gesture that it could sell him every season.
Still, De Jong chose to stay, solely shouting for Barcelona. Most Barcelona fans also applauded him for continuing his team’s remaining choices.
However, the atmosphere has changed since the middle of last season when Dou Yong has been away from the ground due to frequent injuries. When rumors of a transfer to Manchester United broke out during the season, public opinion that he should be sold gained strength.
In addition, Theyong has only played in five games this season. When he participates in the game, his performance is compliance. Critics say that it is not a performance suitable for a large annual salary of only 35 million euros (about 51.5 billion won).
“Manchester United had the opportunity to recruit him under Erik ten Hag. He is the only one who will change the coach. Ten Hag has maintained a good relationship with The Dragon since Ajax,” the media said, adding that chances are slim for now.
