FC Barcelona has made the decision to put Frenkie de Jong on the market for the upcoming winter transfer window. The FC Barcelona player has attracted interest from several clubs in the Premier League and Saudi Pro League.

As revealed by the Dutch outlet De Telegraaf, the board led by president Joan Laporta and sports director Deco demands a sum of 50 million euros fixed, plus another 15 million in variables to authorize the departure of the international player with the Netherlands. Rumors of Frenkie de Jong's departure are gaining strength.

Barcelona's Reasons for Selling Frenkie de Jong

The decision of the board responds to the urgent need to reduce the first team's wage bill and generate financial liquidity before the budget year closes. The Catalan board aims to recoup the investment made in the 29-year-old player and free up roster space that his wages currently occupy.

The player is currently in the process of recovering from an injury, but sports officials believe that his performance in the midfield over the next two months will be crucial in reigniting the interest of major European clubs.

Potential Destinations for Frenkie de Jong

FC Barcelona's roadmap aims to steer negotiations towards the English Premier League or the Saudi Pro League in Saudi Arabia. Both competitions have the necessary economic capacity to cover both the 65 million euros of the total transfer and the player's high salary demands.

Discussions between Barcelona's executives and the midfielder's agents have already begun with the goal of agreeing on a negotiated departure at the beginning of 2027.

The player's representatives will hold working meetings with representatives from the Premier League and the Saudi league during the months of October and November 2026. FC Barcelona plans to finalize the sale of the midfielder in the first week of January 2027, enabling a restructuring of the midfield and providing financial room to register new players.
