De Jong sends clear message to Barcelona on contract extension

Frenkie de Jong has sent a strong message to the Barcelona board regarding his future at the club. The Dutch midfielder has made it clear that he intends to continue wearing the Barcelona shirt. "I want to stay, and if staying requires renewing with a lower salary, I am ready for that too."

This statement reflects De Jong's commitment to Barcelona's sporting project, even if it implies a personal financial effort. The club will value positively the player's predisposition, especially in a context of financial adjustments.

The player's attitude makes it easier to negotiate a possible contract renewal in the coming months. De Jong, although with ups and downs, has been a key player in midfield since his arrival and his continuity is seen as a priority by the sporting management.

The Netherlands international midfielder has been one of Hansi Flick's most important pieces in winning titles this season and seems to have also made amends with the Cules fans who have been criticising him in the past.
