Midfielders play a crucial role on every football team. Whether it be scoring, defending, creating match-winning goals, or even the possession game, they are the ones on whom everything lies. Only a few midfielders hold all of these qualities, and the Dutch footballer Frenkie de Jong is one of them. He is one of the most underrated footballers and is currently the best midfielder.
De Jong plays a crucial role in both the sides he represents (Netherlands Football and FC Barcelona). Well, there have been talks about him moving to another club (Manchester United) in the upcoming seasons. Looking at all these talks, here is what de Jong replied:
“I am at the club of my dreams, Barcelona.”
Here is the complete statement:
“I am at the club of my dreams, Barcelona. I am happy here. Manchester United is still there, always interested. A new league could bring you new impulses. Possibly. But I am satisfied with Barca. It is always difficult to say. For now, I feed good here!”
Frenkie de Jong joined Barcelona in 2019, and since then, he has been an integral part of the squad. In all their successful campaigns, he has been the unsung warrior. So far, he has almost won all the Spanish football titles but has yet to win the UEFA Champions League.
In the upcoming seasons, Barcelona will surely be one of the top contenders, and he would love to win the title with them. As of now, he is Barca’s Golden Boy and will represent the club in the upcoming seasons.
