Zapping World Eleven EXCLUDED: Kalidou Koulibaly’s “Little Brother” interview!
Earlier this morning, we were talking to you about Gavi and its extension which is a little too late for Joan Laporta’s taste, it is now the turn of Frenkie de Jong, who is apparently asked to extend very soon. At the end of the contract in June 2026, but courted by PSG and Luis Campos for a few days, the Dutchman wants to be secured by his Barcelona leaders. Still in the context of his interview given to L’Esportuia Catalan media, Laporta said this:
“ Frenkie de Jong is a high quality player, he knows our system and, yes, he is a very desired player on the market and offers have come to us, but I think he has to continue at Barca. »
As for Xavi, he is facing difficulties within his squad, he who said this after the game against Villarreal: “ Now begins the office work, which is even more important than the work in the field. Office work is very necessary. It is important to strengthen, because this year we have not been able to compete. Barca can’t afford another year without titles. “If FC Barcelona wants to strengthen, it will have to sell and according to SPORT this morning, several players potentially pushed towards the exit do not wish to leave. They are Martin Braithwaite, Clement Lenglet, Riqui Puig, Frenkie de Jong and Memphis Depay. The last two cities seem to have the level to stay at the club, so we must remain cautious for the moment.
to summarize
It is a pivotal off-season that is looming for FC Barcelona. Next season, the ambitions will be great, so we have to respond to them correctly this summer by strengthening ourselves intelligently, but we also have to sell. A hell of a puzzle in perspective.
