De Jong on Bayern Munich's radar
According to Relevo, as reported by Daily Mail, Bayern have renewed their interest in De Jong despite the 26-year-old claiming he is 'happy' at the LaLiga outfit.
Barcelona will welcome good offers for the Netherlands international. The potential transfer of De Jong comes at a crucial time for Barcelona, with the club looking to shore up its finances before the end of the fiscal year.
Reports suggest that Barca is open to offers for De Jong, hoping to fetch a significant sum to alleviate their financial woes.
"We have tried, we have fought but it was not possible. It is a strong blow because we were convinced that we could progress. There is no choice but to get up and try again next year."
Despite facing disappointment in the Champions League, De Jong remains focused on the task at hand with Barcelona, determined to bounce back from their recent setback.
"I had the feeling that Barcola's touch was long and the ball was going towards our goalkeeper. I haven't seen the play but that's the feeling I had."
While Bayern Munich's interest in De Jong heats up, speculation also surrounds his Barcelona teammate Ronald Araujo, with the German club reportedly eyeing a move for the talented defender.
As the summer transfer window approaches, all eyes will be on Bayern Munich as they look to make a statement with their ambitious recruitment drive.
