FC Barcelona is not happy with the way its player Frenkie De Jong reacts to the proposal of a new contract.
Frenkie de Jong is delaying signing a new contract with FC Barcelona. And this is starting to frustrate its Blaugrana leaders.
According to Catalunya Radio, FC Barcelona has been waiting for De Jong's response regarding his new contract offer for a while. Barça management believes that the Dutchman is delaying his decision and not starting negotiations in order to be able to leave for free in 2026, when his contract ends. A solution which will clearly be problematic for the club.
Barça wants to be clear about De Jong
Hansi Flick now considers it a key element of his project. However, there is no guarantee that he will stay.
Relations between the midfielder and the board have been strained since the club tried to force through a move to Manchester United two years ago.
De Jong was, as a reminder, injured at the start of the season. He has only been back since October. Since then, he has played 6 matches, but only one as a starter. It's Wednesday evening against Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League. He remained on the field for 68 minutes.
