Barcelona have been working to negotiate a new agreement with De Jong for the past few months. The Dutch midfielder has consistently been one of the highest-paid players in the team. The club's goal is to retain De Jong while adjusting his salary to fit within the current wage structure.
According to Marca , both sides are close to reaching a mutual agreement. Extending the contract would give Barcelona more financial space due to the adjusted salary of the former Ajax star. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano confirmed that De Jong will continue to play for Barca.
Previously, Sporting Director Deco also affirmed: "The Frenkie we have this season is the Frenkie we want. We want to continue with Frenkie. He has one year left on his contract and we will analyze everything calmly."
De Jong finished the 2024/25 season in excellent form, demonstrating that he had overcome the physical and mental issues that had affected him throughout the year. Under the guidance of Hansi Flick, De Jong was given a crucial role in midfield.
The current situation suggests there are no major obstacles left. If everything goes smoothly, Barcelona could officially announce De Jong's contract extension in the next few days, retaining a player who currently enjoys Flick's complete trust. De Jong, who was once thought to be leaving Camp Nou, is now considered an indispensable part of the club's long-term plans.
