At 27 years old and under contract with the club until June 2026, the future of Dutch midfielder Frenkie de Jong seems to be moving further and further away from FC Barcelona. Recent reports highlight this trend.
Frenkie de Jong is one of the players whose situation is causing headaches at FC Barcelona. Returning to the field after his injury, the 27-year-old midfielder remains tight-lipped about his future, continuing to generate uncertainty within the club’s upper echelons.
With a contract currently running until June 30, 2026, the Dutch international has responded evasively to the Catalan club’s offers to renew his contract. FC Barcelona’s plan is to extend the player’s contract while seeking to reduce his salary, which is one of the highest in the squad.
However, it seems that FC Barcelona’s patience with the player is running out (he has only played 9 official matches this season, totaling 262 minutes). In fact, according to information from Mundo Deportivo, the renewal offer that was submitted has now expired.
