Barcelona gave Frenkie de Jong until June 30 to choose his future with the team. The Dutch midfielder must decide whether he wants to stay at Camp Nou beyond 2026. His current deal expires that year, and the club wants an answer soon. Spanish newspaper Sport broke the news about the summer deadline. Team officials hope de Jong picks Barcelona over other options.
De Jong played well under coach Hans Flick during the recent campaign. The 27-year-old appeared 46 times across all competitions this season. He scored two goals and created two assists for teammates. His performances improved dramatically during the second half of the year. Flick helped bring out the best aspects of his game.
Barcelona wants De Jong to sign a new contract, but demands he accept lower wages. The club faces financial pressures that require salary cuts from top players. De Jong earns a significant amount of money under his current agreement. Reducing his pay would help Barcelona balance its books. The midfielder weighs his choices before the June deadline arrives.
