Al Ittihad\u2019s Interest in Frenkie De Jong is Real \u2013 Reports
\nAccording to Relevo, Al Ittihad\u2019s pursuit of Frenkie De Jong is genuine, with the Saudi club\u2019s sporting director, Ram\u00f3n Planes, leading the charge.<\/p>\n
Planes, who played a key role in bringing De Jong to Barcelona in 2019, is now eager to reunite with the Dutch midfielder at Al Ittihad. Notably, he was also instrumental in signing Pedri during the same transfer window.<\/p>\n
This wouldn\u2019t be Planes\u2019 first successful deal involving Barcelona, as he previously facilitated Unai Hern\u00e1ndez\u2019s move to Al Ittihad before the January transfer window deadline.<\/p>\n
De Jong Focused on Barcelona Future
\nDespite Al Ittihad\u2019s strong interest, reports suggest that De Jong is open to discussing a contract extension with Barcelona. The midfielder has consistently expressed his desire to stay at Camp Nou, making any potential transfer a complex negotiation.<\/p>\n
With both Barca and De Jong keen on continuing their partnership, it remains to be seen whether Al Ittihad can change his mind\u2014or if he will commit his future to the Blaugrana.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
