United 'willing to wait until last day of transfer window' for Frenkie de Jong signing

Man United still remain convinced that Frenkie de Jong will join them in the summer window even after moving into the 13th week of negotiations for him, claims Sport.

The Red Devils have ‘brought out the artillery’ and are ready to wait until the very last of the summer transfer window (31 August) for his arrival.

United believe that the midfielder will join them once his salary situation at Barcelona is resolved and he gets his deferred wages.

The Red Devils are ready to solve this issue, but are being respectful that this is between De Jong and the La Liga side.

United realize they remain the favourites to sign De Jong despite links with Chelsea. Erik ten Hag has already received the midfielder’s confirmation that he does want to join, claims the report.

The Red Devils have already agreed a €85m transfer fee with Barca for the Dutchman, but are yet to agree personal terms with him.
