[Manchester United](https://technosports.co.in/2022/07/14/lisandro-martinez-to-mufc-final-talk/) and Barcelona have reached an agreement over the transfer of Frenkie de Jong. The two clubs have finalised a fee worth €85 million for the midfielder. Of that amount, €75 million will be paid upfront while the remainder will be available in the form of add-ons. 

However, the problem is that the player does not want to move from Camp Nou. He has had talks with Erik Ten Hag over a reunion at Old Trafford, but he is owed €20 million in wages by the Spanish side. He wants the situation sorted completely before he accepts a transfer away.

He will be happy staying at Barcelona for the coming season even if the transfer falls through. The Dutchman is also unlikely to take a wage cut in order to stay with the La Liga side for the long-term. As a result, it seems like the transfer saga will drag on late into the window before a solution is achieved. 

Barcelona have signed three new players so far in Franck Kessie, Andreas Christensen and Raphinha. They have also [renewed the contract of Ousmane Dembele](https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1547562828109791236?s=20&t=ui3CoYNRA5G582523Tu1JQ), who has taken a pay cut. Moreover, they are also expected to launch an offer for Robert Lewandowski this summer. 

As a result, Frenkie de Jong has chances of remaining at the club even after the long drawn discussions between the two clubs.
