The newspaper “Mundo Deportivo” reported that Barcelona’s management withdrew the renewal offer it had made to Frenkie de Jong throughout this year.
The Dutch international’s contract at Camp Nou expires in the summer of 2026, and renewing his contract was one of the ways the Barca management tried to reduce his salary.
De Jong never responded to the offer made to him by Barcelona’s management over the past year, and Barcelona’s management decided to withdraw it.
The Blaugrana management believes that it must first look at what the player will offer after his return from injury, and then make a decision on whether or not to try to renew his contract.
De Jong is one of the mainstays this season with Hansi Flick, but his physical condition is a matter of great doubt, especially since he has not fully recovered from his injury yet.
If De Jong succeeds in performing well, Barcelona will make a new offer that is completely different from the last offer that has become a thing of the past and will not return under any name.
