Paris Saint-Germain is the latest club to seriously throw themselves into what has become a race for Dutch Frenkie de Jong. If things go as “as planned”, Barcelona could be left with 100 million euros, money they desperately need.

Barcelona have found the perfect replacement for Frenkie de Jong.

FC Barcelona have set their sights on Tijjani Reijnders as one of the top priorities for the upcoming transfer market. The sports management, led by Deco, has begun to make moves to try to secure the Dutch midfielder’s incorporation, whose performances at AC Milan have caught the attention of the Catalan club.

Hansi Flick has already given the green light to the operation, which stands out as an alternative to Frenkie de Jong’s possible departure.

Since joining San Siro, Reijnders has experienced tremendous growth, establishing himself as a key piece in the ‘Rossoneri’ team and in Serie A. His physical and technical abilities have made him a highly valued midfielder, which has led Barcelona to seriously consider his signing. Although De Jong’s future remains uncertain, the Catalan club’s intention is to bring in the Dutch player regardless of what happens to his compatriot.

Reijnders, on FC Barcelona’s radar
AC Milan will not make his departure easy and has valued the player at over 40 million euros, a figure that Barcelona are willing to consider at Camp Nou. The delicate situation of the Italian team could facilitate negotiations, and Barcelona will be hoping to surpass other European clubs that have also shown interest in the talented midfielder.

However, Reijnders’ potential arrival would have consequences for the Blaugrana squad. Marc Casadó, who has already lost prominence in recent months, could see his role further reduced and be forced to seek an exit. In addition, the return of Marc Bernal, another young midfielder who is expected to get playing time in the future, adds to the scenario. Therefore, the Dutchman’s addition would mark a turning point in Barcelona’s sports planning.
