The FC Barcelona had a strategy fixed to tackle the signing of Frenkie of Jong, midfield player of the Ajax that has been related with the Barcelona club during the last weeks. However, the predisposition of the player to dress of Barcelona would have carried to a change of plans by part of the entity culé.
The initial intention with Of Jong was to block his traspaso to another club to bring him to the Camp Nou of face to the season 2019-2020 in a similar operation to the one of Arthur Melo. Nevertheless, according to the informations of Sportive World, the footballer would be presionando so that the operation closed already, something that would change the Barcelona plans.
It is necessary to say that the traspaso will not be easy. The Ajax already sold to Justin Kluivert to the Rome and would not be had to lose to another of his stars this same summer, by what would have put a price totally out of market: 50 million euros. A price that the Barça would not pay.
However, it will treat to recess said pretence since it considers that, to his 22 years, is a player with a lot of future and present. The best definition for Of Jong would be that it is a player todoterreno. With an important physical capacity but the deal of characteristic balloon of the school of the Ajax, is able to shine so much in positions of '4', giving gone out with the possession, as playing of interior, more near of the goal.
If finally it advances his signing to this summer, his arrival, beside the one of Arthur Melo, would help to give air to the double pivote formed by Sergio Busquets and Ivan Rakitic, two players that hardly have had rest in this last season, arriving melted to the final stretch. Of Jong, that can occupy these positions, would be an ideal reinforcement so that both could rotar.
The Barça, conservative
In spite of that the change of stage that supposes the pressure of the player, in the FC Barcelona will follow with caution in this regard of the incorporation of Frenkie of Jong. There is not haste to dress him of Barcelona and more taking into account the requests desorbitadas of the clubs sellers, that are connoisseurs of the 100 millions that has the Barça to the not having fichado to Griezmann.
