Midfielder Frenkie De Jong is expected to soon renew his contract with the Barcelona team, "Mundo Deportivo" announced on Tuesday.
It is learned that the parties are close to the agreement, which will become official by the end of this year. With the contract renewal, De Jong will be part of Barcelona until 2028, while his current contract expires in the summer of 2026.
At Barça, they are satisfied with the performances of De Jong, who they want to keep as long as possible in the team. The Dutchman joined Barcelona in 2019 from Ajax and was close to a move to Manchester United last year, but turned down such an opportunity to stay at Barça.
In 8 appearances this season in all competitions, De Jong has also scored 1 goal.
