In October,SPORT reported that Manchester United, Chelsea, and Bayern Munich have all shown interest in Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong, with Paris Saint-Germain also monitoring his situation closely.
While de Jong remains dedicated to Barcelona, PSG’s track record of signing players from the Catalan club keeps them in the conversation as a possible destination heading into the summer of 2025.
PSG have bolstered their midfield in recent years with additions like Vitinha, Fabián Ruiz, and João Neves. Meanwhile,journalist Ferran Correas recently hinted that Barcelona could be open to selling de Jong next summer.
