However, Barcelona has rejected this offer, despite ongoing financial challenges that have prompted them to consider offers for the Dutch international.
De Jong’s potential move to Manchester United has been a subject of speculation since Erik ten Hag’s appointment as manager.
The midfielder was a key target in 2022, but a deal did not materialize. With Barcelona’s current financial issues, they remain open to selling De Jong, but the club is reportedly holding out for a higher transfer fee to reflect his value.
Negotiations may continue, with both clubs needing to align on a valuation that satisfies Barcelona's financial demands while meeting United's budgetary constraints.
