One of the players who could change the midfield in the summer transfer window is Frenkie de Jong.
The Dutchman is not in Barca's plans, the "Balugran" management wants to get rid of him because of his high salary, which De Jong does not agree to reduce.
At the beginning of the transfer window, Manchester United showed interest in De Jong, but the footballer was not interested in moving to Old Trafford.
And now Chelsea entered the game. The Athletic writes that Chelsea is in direct negotiations with Barcelona, adding that the London club is optimistic and believes that it can realize this transfer.
Chelsea brought in Raheem Sterling and Kalidou Koulibaly in this transfer window, and the arrival of Kukurelja is expected.
De Jong came to Barça in 2019 from Ajax. His current contract expires in 2026, and according to Transfermarkt, his value is estimated at 60 million euros.
