Manchester United are reportedly monitoring Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong’s situation at the Nou Camp but face an uphill battle to secure his services.

The Red Devils are said to be in the market for a central midfielder as new manager Erik ten Hag will look to rebuild the squad on his arrival at Old Trafford at the end of the season.

United are reportedly aware that Barcelona could be willing to part with De Jong as they look to offload players to fund their summer transfer business. However, the Premier League side will face a challenge for the Dutchman with some at the club accepting that the deal could prove to be difficult, according to ESPN.

Man United are also looking for a central defender with Eric Bailly and Phil Jones expected to leave in the summer and Erik ten Hag’s former player De Ligt has caught the eye.

However, if he was told by the Catalan giants that he was no longer needed at the club, De Jong is believed to want to join a side with Champions League football. United are now guaranteed to be playing European football next season but their tumultuous campaign has meant it will not be in the Champions League.
