Frankfurt's 2: 3 Summary over Barcelona (Sport 1)

Precisely after looking great since Xavi's appointment, Barcelona has been on the decline again in recent weeks, losing for the first time ever three consecutive games at the Camp Nou - against Eintracht Frankfurt in the Europa League quarter-finals and in the domestic league against Cadiz and Rayo Vallecano.

Towards the summer, which is expected to be particularly busy in the joining sector, in Spain we have marked one star who may actually make his way out - Frankie de Jong.

The Dutch midfielder joined Ajax three years ago for 75 million euros, but Marca have stated that sometimes this season his status does not fit the price tag.

Out of 27 games in which he partnered under Xavi, he completed 90 minutes just seven times and was substituted in 14 cases.

Now, despite his and the coach's recent statements that the collaboration will continue well beyond the summer, his stay next season is not guaranteed and the picture is not so clear.

"Frankie does not feel so comfortable at the club and does not rule out leaving in the summer," Marca wrote, "Xavi often praises him, but words aside and deeds aside. I'm nervous about the locker room. "

Words apart and deeds apart.

Barcelona do not close the door on a sale because they know they can make a significant amount of money.

If they sell it for the amount they bought it three years ago, they will have the financial ability to land at Camp Nou a star this summer.

Manchester United, who recently appointed coach Eric Tenn, the brother who coached De Jong at Ajax, have been mentioned as interested in the link, as well as Bayern Munich.
