“Fantastic player” from La Liga told to join Liverpool or Man United

Liverpool have been linked with a move for Frenkie de Jong, with the Barcelona midfielder’s future becoming a talking point ahead of the January transfer window.

The Reds have been linked with a move for the Netherlands international as they look to strengthen their midfield options, although any potential deal could depend on Barcelona’s valuation and the player’s fitness.

De Jong has not been a key player for the Spanish champions this season, and he has been urged to move on to find regular playing time.

Frenkie de Jong’s qualities could appeal to Liverpool

The Dutchman has long been regarded as a technically gifted midfielder, capable of dictating the tempo of a game through his passing, composure and ability to progress the ball under pressure.

His versatility could also make him an appealing option for Liverpool, given his experience operating in both deeper midfield roles and more advanced positions.
