Multiple reasons for de Jong to stay in Barcelona

De Jong has just bought a property in Barcelona. It is a house in Pedralbes, in one of the best areas of the city and also one of the most expensive. The player has decided to make an investment of this magnitude because he is convinced that he still has many years to live in Barcelona and playing for Barça.

Frenkie de Jong, like many other Dutch players, always dreamed of playing for Barça as a child. It was his childhood wish, like that of so many other youngsters. To wear the same shirt that Johan Cruyff and so many other great Dutch players once wore. Apparently he never dreamed of wearing the Manchester United shirt, as great as the English club is.

If he were to go to Manchester United, De Jong would not participate in the next edition of the Champions League and understands that this would be a loss of prestige as he is considered one of the best midfielders in the world. The player wants to compete against the best and the best are in the Champions League.
