The future of Frenkie De Jong at FC Barcelona is once again up in the air. According to recent reports, the Catalan club has allegedly decided to withdraw the contract renewal offer it had presented to the Dutch midfielder, who has faced increasing criticism in recent weeks. The player's contractual situation has taken an unexpected turn, prompting the sports management to seriously consider his continuity for the upcoming season.

The renewal offer, initially aimed at adjusting De Jong's salary to the club's economic needs, is no longer on the table. AS reports that at Barça, they point out that the player never formally responded to this proposal and also made it clear that he is unwilling to accept a reduction in his current salary, which is one of the highest in the squad. This scenario has led the club to reconsider its strategy and consider a possible sale in the next summer transfer window.

De Jong's departure is being considered

From the Barcelona environment, it is understood that De Jong's departure could relieve finances and make way for new signings that better fit the club's sporting and economic project. Although the Dutchman has been a key player at times, his recent performance has not completely convinced either the fans or the board.

With several top-level clubs interested in his services, the upcoming summer appears to be a decisive moment for the player's future. What seems clear is that, after months of uncertainty, Barça is gearing up for a new chapter in its relationship with De Jong, where a renewal no longer seems to be part of the storyline.
