Official, Manchester United Goes Crazy: They'll Pay €50M for Flick's Untouchable

The English team wants a footballer from Barça to lead the Red Devils' new project

Since his arrival at Barça, Hansi Flick has shown to be a coach with an exceptional ability to enhance his players' performance. A clear example is Robert Lewandowski, who after an irregular year, has regained his goal-scoring instinct and influence in the game. The Polish forward is experiencing a second wind and is a key piece in this competitive Barça.

The same goes for Raphinha, who has found continuity and consistency, and is at a Ballon d'Or level. Another of the great beneficiaries of Flick's work is Alejandro Balde. The young full-back, who had a discreet season with Xavi Hernández, has regained his best form. 

Offers Pour In in Barcelona

Barça is once again on everyone's lips as one of the strongest candidates to win the Champions League. The soccer they display and the decisiveness of their victories have set off alarms in other major clubs, who know that the culé team has regained its level. This situation also causes many European entities to closely follow several Barça players.

One of the clubs most interested in fishing in the blaugrana squad is Manchester United. The English team, which seeks to rebuild its sports project, has set its sights on some of the stars leading this competitive Barça. According to various reports, the 'Red Devils' would be preparing significant moves in the summer and have a priority name on their agenda.

The Footballer Manchester United Wants: They Offer 50M

According to the information published by 'El Nacional', Manchester United plans a serious offensive to sign De Jong in the next market. The English club would be willing to offer 50M euros for the Dutch midfielder, whom they want to make the cornerstone of their new sports project. It is not the first time they have tried, but this time they see it as more feasible and are determined to go all out.

From England, they believe that if Barça needs to bring in money to strengthen other positions, they might be open to negotiating. However, the current situation of the player in Flick's team changes things, and a lot. De Jong has gone from being a debated player to being completely undisputed.

He Is Untouchable for Flick and His Renewal Is Being Worked On

With Hansi Flick, Frenkie de Jong has become an essential piece of the team. The Dutchman is offering his best version since he arrived at the club, managing the game's tempo and providing balance and quality in the midfield. Therefore, Barça doesn't consider his departure, and on the contrary, wants to bet on him long-term.

The board is working on his renewal, and for the first time, De Jong is willing to extend his contract beyond 2026. The player feels valued, a protagonist, and an essential part of a winning project. That mutual confidence could close the door to Manchester United and any other offeror.
