Interestingly, Fichajes disclosed that even if the player is captain, the club no longer rules out selling him if the proper offer comes along. As a result, the player may be in his final months as a Blaugrana.
As they desperately need a fresh midfield addition, the report also notes that Liverpool in particular are aware of his predicament and believe he would fit well in with Arne Slot’s dynamism.
If it happens, De Jong’s move to Anfield will make headlines as one of the greatest summer transfer window moves and might benefit all sides.
While Barcelona will receive hefty transfer fees for a player who is in fact surplus, Liverpool will gain access to a world-class midfielder as a result of the deal, reports Barca Universal.
From the player’s point of view, it will provide him a new start in a different league and enable him to play regularly in a different system.
It’s unclear if Liverpool and Barcelona can come to a deal in the upcoming months, but Liverpool is prepared to make an offer. After all, should his sale take place, the Catalans will be keen to take as much as possible from it.
