Frenkie de Jong doesn't want to leave Barcelona and rejects offer from Saudi Arabia
Dutch midfielder Frenkie de Jong could have left Barcelona in the summer of 2024, but the player refused the transfer and has not changed his stance since.
Details: According to Sports.es, de Jong rejected an offer from Al-Ittihad and wants to stay in Barcelona. His current contract with the club runs until the summer of 2026, but it's possible that the Barça management might try to find a new club for him.
Nevertheless, Hansi Flick played an important role in bringing de Jong closer to Barcelona. The new coach wants the Dutchman to remain with the team.
Barcelona thrashed Borussia Dortmund in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals with a score of 4-0. However, at the end of the game, Yamal requested a substitution, which might have caused concern among Catalan fans.
Reminder: Right after the match, the head coach of the "Blaugrana," Hansi Flick, was asked about this, and he replied that Yamal is fine.
