When Barca ask for players then price is raising same is when Real wants to buy or any other big club
Right, that is true but, I think the only reason why Barcelona paid that much was just to make they beat PSG and Man City to his signature.
I mean, we haven't seen him playing with Barcelona so it might be too early to say that he'll be another Andre Gomes. If he can adapt as fast as Arthur did (a player with no experience in european football), then maybe he'll turn out to be a decent signing, time will tell if he'll become a top player.
I guess I was just being too hard on him already. I actually like De Jong as a player, I was only disappointed in the Barcelona board for another unnecessary signing. You also acknowledged that Arthur has adapted well but still that has not been good enough to secure him a place in the starting xi, what then could we expect the fate of De Jong to be.
Hey i believe they had no choice had they waited for summer it would have resulted in a bidding war, but even considering that I feel they have vastly over paid for him. While there’s no doubts about the quality of what De Jong will bring, I’m just not sure how he’ll get into the starting line up. Also it’s pertinent to note with Barcelona coach not sure to stay beyond this season, this signing doesn’t make any sense especially when there’s news they’ll move for Neymar.
