BAYERN MUNICH are reportedly the only club Frenkie de Jong would be willing to depart Barcelona for.
That is despite Manchester United having already agreed a deal worth up to £72million to prise the midfielder away from the Nou Camp.
Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong could be on the move this summer
It was claimed over the weekend how the 25-year-old is in constant contact with ex-Ajax boss Erik ten Hag over a reunion at Old Trafford.
Though there have previously been doubts as to whether he would want to drop out of the Champions League to join the Red Devils.
And according to Sport, the Holland international has ruled out a switch to the Theatre of Dreams.
Instead, should De Jong decide to quit the Blaugrana, he would only have eyes for Bayern.
It has been said that as well Bayern offering him the chance to win regular silverware, he would be also be closer to his homeland.
De Jong would also be reunited with former Ajax team-mate Matthijs de LIgt, who is closing in on a deal to the Allianz Arena from Juventus.
And he would also have chance to once again play with Ryan Gravenberch and Noussair Mazraoui, who swapped Ajax for Bayern earlier this summer.
However a move to Germany could be difficult due to Bayern’s sour relationship with Barca following their pursuit of striker Robert Lewandowski.
Sport also declared that United‘s Premier League rivals Chelsea are keen on De Jong.
But it would take a ‘sensational offer’ for the player to consider joining the Blues.
De Jong is currently in America with Barca after being named in their travelling squad for their pre-season tour.
He is expected to remain in the States for the next fortnight, with a potential transfer to drag on until the end of the window.
