Frenkie de Jong has clarified his situation at FC Barcelona, ​​but especially the negative rumors concerning him.

Arriving at FC Barcelona in 2019 after revealing himself at Ajax Amsterdam, Frenkie de Jong established himself within the Blaugrana team. However, and despite his repeated love for his club, the Dutchman found his name often cited in certain media, and not always with the best intentions. It is to bring his truth that he chose to empty his bag by answering questions from Barca One. And he particularly wanted to mention his serious injury contracted last April.

An injury to his right ankle which has kept him sidelined ever since. According to some bad tongues, he refused to have an operation. First lie, according to Frenkie de Jong.

“That’s not true. Everyone at the club agreed that the best solution was not to operate. »

And the player takes the opportunity to give some good news:

“I am gradually regaining confidence in myself to hit the ball and put in more commitment. I’ll be back soon. »

Not paid that much

Another rumor he wanted to put to rest; his remuneration. “It was said that I received a salary of 37 million euros, which is completely false. We are even very, very far from that. I’m not ready to earn that much money. But I understand people who are frustrated because they think I get paid a lot. » So many responses which also tend to show that Frenkie de Jong is not determined to leave Barça.

If the club itself, on the other hand, thought about selling him to bring in some new money into the coffers that were a little too empty, the Dutchman under contract until June 2026 intends to complete his commitment. Good news for the supporters. Less for his detractors.
