Sources: Barcelona will decide the future of the midfielder with two possible results

Barcelona is focusing on guaranteeing the future of Frenkie de Jong, since its contract approaches its expiration in 2026.

The signing reports reveal that the club has established two possible options: to renew its contract or consider a sale during the next summer transfer window.

According to the reports, the Saudi Arabia clubs are closely monitoring the situation of Jong, with the interest of the teams eager to make an offer if they do not renew their agreement with Barcelona.

Although the winter transfer window is now closed, the sports director of Barcelona, ​​Deco, has changed the approach to resolve contract renovations, including Jong’s.

De Jong’s situation is complicated by his significant salary. The club previously withdrew an offer after it did not respond to it, and are now looking to negotiate an extension with a reduced salary.

His role has decreased a bit due to a long injury that kept him out of the field, giving Marc Casado the opportunity to intervene. In case the negotiations with De Jong Stall, Barcelona, ​​be prepared to boost a sale in the summer.

However, De Jong has been reluctant to leave the club, which could create tension as the season comes to an end.
