Good and bad news for Tottenham after report of huge bid – Club likely open to sale, player may need convincing
The latest news concerning Frenkie de Jong’s potential move from Barcelona to Tottenham has caused quite a stir. According to Sport, Tottenham has made a €60m bid for the Dutchman and offered him a four-year contract with the possibility of matching his current wages at Barcelona under certain conditions.
Barcelona, however, is not eager to let De Jong leave and is pushing for him to sign a new contract that would see his salary reduced by more than half. The club has received no communication from De Jong or his representatives regarding negotiations for a new contract, leading them to consider other options, including a potential transfer.
Additionally, it has been reported that De Jong is disappointed with the current state of affairs at Barcelona and is open to moving to a club with ambitions of winning the Champions League. While Tottenham may not currently meet that criteria, recent developments at the club could change the midfielder’s perspective.
Ultimately, the outcome will depend on how Barcelona responds to the bid and De Jong’s potential willingness to reconsider his aspirations.
