'Pure lies' - Marc Bernal launches staunch defence of Barcelona team-mate Frenkie de Jong
"Everything that is said about him is pure lies. Reviews? I see him train, I see him play and it's amazing,"
"Not only do I think about it, we have talked about it with some teammates, who in the first days we were promoted to the first team and he was the one who surprised us the most because of the technique he has."
"The speed also surprised me a lot. And most importantly, that he did not lose a single ball."
Marc Bernal strongly defended Frenkie de Jong and rejected negative claims about the midfielder. Bernal described watching de Jong train and play as amazing. Teammates were surprised by de Jong's technique when they first joined the senior squad. Bernal highlighted de Jong's speed and exceptional ball retention, noting he did not lose a single ball in those early days. De Jong has faced criticism and debate over his salary. De Jong has committed his future to Barcelona by signing an extension that runs until 2029.
