Frenkie de Jong 'insists' on Barcelona stay — Man United fans are sick of transfer saga

The Frenkie de Jong saga has taken a fresh new twist even as negotiations between Manchester United and Barcelona continue.

The delay is understood to be caused by the stand-off over €17 million in unpaid wages. Frenkie stands to earn a higher pay if he stays at Camp Nou but Barca want him off their books to possibly invest the money elsewhere.

Unfortunately, the latest reports in Spain by Mundo Deportivo still suggest the 25-year-old 'insists' on staying with Barcelona. De Jong reportedly is unaware of Chelsea's interest but prefers to fight for his place under Xavi.

Here's how United fans reacted to the latest development on Reddit:

💬 AadiUnited: "Yeah no sh**, he wants the 17 million pounds they f***ing owe him."

💬 LakerBull: "I've been saying that we should move on from him now, it is not worth the time we are spending on trying to get Barcelona to pay him up. They're really hoping we pay him or someone else does, but they ain't doing it. Get someone else in."

💬 SuperHans30: "At what point do we walk away and move on? We can't risk this dragging on and having it fall through."

💬 neotheseventh: "We definitely should move on. Would love to have him but at this point, toxicity surrounding him is too much. Let him and Barca fight this out till the bitter end, we need positivity and need to get our pre season going."

💬 Contradicting_Pete: "Why don't we be a big club for a change, refuse to engage any further in this shit show and find another player?"

💬 BenevolentThanos: "We should move on. He doesn't want to play for United. This has another Di Maria written over it."
