Frenkie de Jong could change Barça's plans in midfield

For the FC Barcelona, the resolution of the future of Frenkie of Jong is transcendental of face to the 2022-23. Xavi Hernández already works in the planning of the beginning of pre-season and the continuity or exit of the of Arkel will be key to resolve the arrival of possible reinforcements in summer or, in his defect, keep the current structure of the midfield, where the neeerlandés and Sergio Busquets are the only fixed pieces of the eleven culé.

In this sense, if Of Jong finally leaves to the Manchester United, the technician egarense already has several names in list to reinforce the medullary. With the imminent arrival of Frack Kessié pertinent of the Milan, the Barça would look for a player of court more offensive, as it is the case of Bernardo Silva and Ilkay Gündogan. The two are very valuable for the diagram of Pep Guardiola in the Manchester City and, if finally they go out, will not do it by an affordable price.

During the last weeks, the name of Rúben Neves sounded with strength in Catalonia like possible relief of the Dutch, but the option was desetimada by Xavi, as it has filtered the local press. Silva would be the predilecto of the technical body, although his price is 'prohibitivo' for the finances of the club (90 million euros). In his defect, Gündogan has a value of market of 35 'kilos' and could go out by a near price to the 50 milllones net.

Nevertheless, the directive prioritises incoporar players that do not have index cards too high to facilitate the arrival of reinforcements in other lines. The aim aims to not spending the 80 net millions that would pay the United by Frenkie in an alone player but, by the contrary, buy two or three players to 'low cost' that allow to reduce the weaknesses blaugranas in the gestation of played of attack.

The renewals also are priority in the Barça

Another feasible use for the money that the United would pay by Of Jong has to see with cushioning renewals and new agreements. With the cases of Gavi and Nico González still pending, the Barça will have to activate the chequebook to retain to his jewels. Likewise, the new agreements of players like Ronald Araújo and Sergi Roberto, in addition to the imminent arrival of Kessié and Andreas Christensen (only signings up to now) represent a money with which the club, for the moment, does not explain. Like this the things, each euro ingresado by Frenkie will be valuable for the directive.
