Barcelona Sporting Director Deco expressed strong support for Frenkie de Jong, stating, 'I don't understand all the talk about Frenkie. He has a contract with Barca and we are very happy with him.' Deco affirmed the club's intention to keep the midfielder, emphasizing their need for him and underlining the player's importance to the team.
Deco further stressed the importance of De Jong's role, saying, 'We want him to stay, but the player will decide at the right time. It is not a matter for now. What matters is that Frenkie plays with us again, because we need him and we value him very much.' This indicates that the club is prioritizing De Jong's well-being and future contributions.
Concerns surrounding De Jong's injury and surgery options were highlighted by former candidate Victor Font, who mentioned, 'The hesitancy to undergo surgery on his foot stems from the club's inability to guarantee such a procedure would work.' This insight reveals deeper issues regarding player management and support within the club.
Reports also indicate that Barcelona has warned De Jong to declare himself fit soon if he continues to reject surgery. The coaching staff is anxious for him to return but understands that he is waiting until he feels 100% fit before making his return to the pitch.
