International Football After months of struggles to Frenkie de Jong cut off the newest diamond of the Dutch football the plunge: ‘t is Barcelona. That Barça 75 to 90 million (with bonuses) lay it down for the 21-year-old has surprised connoisseurs of international football. “The big boss – Messi – wanted to make him look absolutely at the, and then the costs,” says analyst Aad de Mos.

It was already clear that Frenkie de Jong not long at Ajax. Clubs like Barcelona, Manchester City and PSG drew in the past few months hard at a Young age sleeve. Ultimately choose the hint for Barça, that a whopping 75 million euro pay, an amount that through a few bonuses in the course of the years can reach up to 90 million. The Young does of the season with Ajax.

According to Aad de Mos made The Young the right choice. “The football that Barcelona plays is The Young written on your body”, says the Dutch ex-trainer of Anderlecht and KV Mechelen. “To combine on the short space is quite The Young thing. If Frenkie to the ball, I’m on the edge of my seat. There is always something unexpected to happen. While you and I are two footballing solutions, see The Young there will be three or four. That way he can stand out of the crowd. And also important: he plays almost always deep, instead of wide.”

That Barça 75 to 90 million veil has for The Young is The Mos more logical. “That today the prices for top players. If I were in the newspaper read that a player for 15 million is transferred, turn my page, because then it will be no good (laughs). In addition, I heard that the big boss – Messi – De Jong it was love at wanted. Then you know that Barcelona make an effort to do so.”
