De Jong has played an important role for Barcelona in recent seasons but has occasionally struggled for a consistent starting spot. However, under Hansi Flick, he has regained a key role in the team.

Contract Uncertainty at Barcelona

Barcelona have made several attempts to extend De Jong’s contract, but their financial difficulties have complicated negotiations. A new deal would require the Dutchman to accept a significant pay cut, which he is reportedly unwilling to do. This could give Liverpool a real chance to secure his signature.

Frenkie de Jong is under contract with Barcelona until 2026, but if the Catalan club wants to cash in, they may have to sell the midfielder as early as this summer.
