FC Barcelona has already set a date for De Jong's renewal and does not want to wait until July. Is the final agreement coming?

Calendar of FC Barcelona

FC Barcelona is already clear about its position regarding the renewal of Frenkie de Jong. The Blaugrana team wants to finalize his contract extension as soon as possible, to the point of not wanting to finish the month of June without having put an end to this matter.

In this sense, as recently advanced by Jijantes, the Barcelona team intends to close the contract extension of the Dutch midfielder this week. This is an operation that will not only be beneficial in sports, but also in the economic section.

Why is Frenkie de Jong's renewal key to Barcelona's 'fair play'?

And yes, the renewal of Frenkie de Jong becomes key at a financial level. By restructuring his link with the club —with the salary adjustment that is expected to be included—, Barça could gain room for maneuver in its salary scale, thinking about the registration of players during this summer market.

Beyond that, in sports, the Dutchman has become a very important element for Hansi Flick's starting eleven. After a start to the 2024/25 season marked by an inconvenience in his right ankle that prevented him from showing his best version, the Arkel native —already fully recovered— was earning his place in the double pivot, until closing the season as an undisputed starter, adding:

  • 46 commitments
  • 2,488 minutes of play
  • Two annotations
  • Two assists

Deco confirms Barça's desire: to continue with Frenkie

Thus, the former Ajax player, directed his contract extension. Even, on this topic, Deco, Barcelona's sporting director, 'got wet' in his recent interview with La Vanguardia. When asked about the continuity of '21' as a culé, he did not hesitate to assert:

"The Frenkie we had this season is the Frenkie we want. We want to continue with Frenkie. He has one more year of contract and we are going to analyze things calmly"

Will De Jong's renewal be closed now?

Under this premise, it would be no surprise that the renewal of Frenkie de Jong with FC Barcelona will be finalized soon, given the willingness of all parties for this to happen. Now, the question is: Will this agreement between the Dutchman and the Blaugrana club really be effective with the expected speed? A matter that, in principle, only the market will dictate.
