Bara: the end of De Jong’s ordeal

We almost tend to forget it. But during its excellent start to the season, FC Barcelona must do without one of its best players.

Frenkie de Jong, who suffered three right ankle injuries last season, is indeed missing. The midfielder of 27 years ago also played a brilliant role in the Clasico victory against Madrid (3-2) on April 21.

Internal tension

The international network tried to return in time for Euro 2024, without success. De Jong was also not fit to start the season with Barça. This means that the Blaugrana are eager to line up before seeing him before the blessing.

The former metronome of Ajax Amsterdam is determined not to have a precipice and to watch over the effects of conservation of the behavior, even if his conductors are responsible for the operation. Which causes tensions, especially since the two parties are also unable to agree on a contract extension. The situation could nevertheless calm down thanks to the new positives received in recent days.

Le Jong resumes with the group

Reassured by his good feelings in individual training, the midfielder under contrast until 2026 completed part of the collective session this Monday. The Jong now hopes to complete a full training session with his teammates in the coming days. And according to the Catalan press, Barça is considering returning to the competition last season. Given the names of absences in midfield (Gavi, Olmo, Fermin Lopez, Bernal and the versatile Christensen), coach Hansi Flick is looking forward to it.
