Zapping World Eleven TOP 10: The most beautiful Ligue 1 2021/2022 jerseys
Rumors are rife 2 months before the opening of the summer transfer window, and as often it is the big teams that drive the market. After the title of Real Madrid, it is another great European who hopes to come and spoil the newfound joy of FC Barcelona supporters. Under contract until June 2026, Frenkie De Jong attracts covetousness. After Manchester United’s interest in the midfielder, it is Juventus who would like to bring the Dutchman to Lombardy. Only, Barça does not intend to part with it for less than 70M€ and with the recent signings of Dusan Vlahovic and Federico Chiesa, the sum is too large for the Italian club. In addition, the former Ajax player’s €7m salary is an additional brake for the Old Lady. The only option conceivable and desired by Juve is an exchange of players like the Pjanic-Arthur operation in 2020, a financial arrangement which is not currently considered by the Catalan club.
Gavi in the process of being extended
After Ronald Araujo, it’s Gavi’s turn to meet with Barça leaders to talk about his contract. Currently linked until 2023 with his training club, the 17-year-old midfielder has a release clause of €50m. Author of 2 goals and 6 assists in 30 La Liga games this season, the former La Masia player should see his clause increase to 1 billion euros, like his teammates Pedri, Fati or Araujo.
FC Barcelona is in second place in the La Liga standings with 2 points ahead of Sevilla FC and still 4 games to play including the reception of Villarreal on the last day.
to summarize
While FC Barcelona finds its DNA under Xavi, Juventus are ready to play a bad trick on the Blaugranas hoping to attract De Jong. At the same time, Catalan leaders are working to secure Gavi’s future.
