Man United have Frenkie De Jong’s favourite shirt number available


 

Manchester United are in talks to sign Barcelona midfielder Frenkie De Jong.

According to a recent report from leading transfer expert and Fabrizio the Red Devils are looking to make the Netherlands international Erik Ten Hag’s first major signing.

Although there is still a lot of work to do before Ten Hag can be reunited with De Jong, the Premier League giant’s pursuit could be boosted by the midfielder’s favourite number being available.

Speaking to Voetbal International back in 2019, as quoted by Evening Standard,De Jong said: “I feel comfortable with that number.

Since joining Barcelona from Ajax back in 2019, De Jong, who has four years left on his deal at the Nou Camp, has gone on to feature in 139 matches, in all competitions, directly contributing to 30 goals along the way.

Given his credentials throughout Europe’s biggest leagues, it goes without saying, should United successfully lure the 25-year-old to Old Trafford, the 20-time league winners would have signed one of the continent’s biggest talents.
