Former Manchester United star urges them to avoid 'desperate' Frenkie de Jong chase this summer
27.03.2023 - 14:53 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Andy Cole has told Manchester United to forget about pursuing Frenkie de Jong this summer given the player’s reluctance to swap the Nou Camp for Old Trafford.
The former striker also suggested that the Reds don’t need the Dutch playmaker and so would question why Erik ten Hag would want to make a punt for his former Ajax midfielder given last summer’s saga.
Painstakingly lengthy negotiations last year ended in disappointment with De Jong’s wage dispute with Barcelona ultimately being too big a hurdle to overcome. Furthermore, De Jong had publicly maintained that his wish was to stay in Spain.

United had agreed a deal in principle for the Netherlands star but the player was adamant he was staying at Barcelona despite their big debts as Ten Hag instead turned to Casemiro. De Jong recently indicated that he would not consider a move this summer.
When asked whether there would be any dealings with United, De Jong responded: "I’m very calm, happy. I want to stay at Barcelona for many more years." MEN Sport understands Ten Hag is still open to signing De Jong but Cole believes United ought to strike his name off the list.
Speaking to King Casino Bonus, he said: “I look at it from the outside, is Frenkie de Jong the midfield player that could do a job for Manchester United? No, he's not.
“De Jong is a very good player and there is no disputing that, but if you look at last season's transfer saga and you have to wonder why would Manchester United want to put themselves in that position again.
“They need to go for players who actually want to come to the club like Casemiro did. Going in for De Jong again makes them look desperate, this is Manchester United
