Fabrizio Romano Reveals Exciting Reason for Lack of Frenkie de Jong Updates Amid Manchester United Pursuit

Frenkie de Jong updates Manchester United

Frenkie de Jong updates have become few and far between over the past day or so with all going quiet following Manchester United receiving Barcelona’s verdict on their initial offer.  According to Fabrizio Romano, the reason for this is that Barcelona will be having an internal meeting this week to plan their transfer strategy, after which much could become clear in potentially exciting reports for United fans.

Fabrizio Romano Reveals the Reason Why Frenkie de Jong Updates Have Slowed Amid Manchester United Interest

Barcelona in a Tough Situation

Barcelona are in a very difficult situation this summer. Despite being linked with players from all over the world like Cesar Azpilicueta and Robert Lewandowski, who wants a move to Barcelona, they have massive debt issues affecting their transfer activity.

Barcelona need to carefully plan their outgoings and signings if they want to get deals done, and they are aiming for plenty of transfer activity. That means a meeting is essential for the club to make the right moves.

In order to rework their debt well enough to make signings the club will have to squeeze every penny they can out of teams interested in their players, like United with de Jong.

Manchester United Happy To Wait?

The news of a meeting being required before we get any more Frenkie de Jong updates is unlikely to go down well with Manchester United. The club is looking to make a number of signings this summer, with a striker and a midfielder top of the wish list. That said, it shows fans that they can expect a flurry of updates in the not-too-distant future.

With Ryan Gravenberch already turning down the club they will need to get the Frenkie de Jong deal done to move on to their next target, something they will be eager to do in order to give Erik ten Hag a squad capable of fulfilling their aims.

Whatever the outcome of the internal meeting at Barcelona, it will have a massive impact on Manchester United and how their summer window pans out.
