Frank de Jong is actually a good player and he been fairly regular in getting a place in the Barcelona main squad since being coached by Koeman, but Barcelona current condition has forced them to release De Jong for another club in order to be able register kessie to the La Liga authorities, according to I am a loss if Barcelona releases De Jong and replaces him with Kessie, Kessie was indeed a very good player at Milan but he certainly needs time to adapt to the Barcelona game later, while De Jong have had good chemistry with fellow Barcelona players, so it is not feasible to release de jong just to recruit kessie who have the same quality, Barcelona main problem at this time is finance, so Barcelona should be more focused on fixing these financial problems than they have to continue to release players when other players are come.
Indeed, there is no other way that must be taken by Barcelona other than selling De Jong and improving their finances. bringing in Kessie and trying to get Lewandowski is an option from barcelona from the sale of De Jong. But as we can see, Barcelona decision to sell De Jong is not the right decision because De Jong has performed quite well this season and contributed greatly to Barcelona revival when there was a change of coach from Koeman to Xavi.
I feel the same way, selling Frank de Jong is not profitable for Barcelona and signing Kessie as his replacement, de Jong has been doing well at Barcelona in the last few seasons it would be a shame if he had to be sold just because of Barcelona's financial crisis to sign other players and he as a victim.
but apart from just one player, I believe with the project that Xavi is doing for Barcelona's progress in the future, maybe this is one of the ways that Xavi can bring in the players he wants.
I'm sure Barcelona don't really want to let Frenkie de Jong go either, so the possibility of selling Frenkie de Jong would be the last step that will be
taken by Barcelona, if Barcelona don't find a solution to save the club's finances. But it is reported that Man United are interested in buying
Frenkie de Jong at a high price. In my opinion, if Man United dared to buy Frenkie de Jong for 100 million euros, Barcelona should really
let Frenkie de Jong go. Moreover, the existence of Erik ten Hag will benefit Frenkie de Jong, because Ten Hag has known Frenkie de Jong
for a long time, because the two had worked together at Ajax. So Frenkie de Jong can comfortably play at Man United and also his departure
can help Barcelona's finances. So in my opinion selling Frenkie de Jong to Man United provides benefits for Frenkie de Jong and also Barcelona.
