More fuel on the fire? Flick addresses situation of Liverpool-linked De Jong
Barcelona manager Hansi Flick has insisted that he cannot control speculation over Frenkie de Jong's future amid continued rumours of the Dutchman's possible exit.
De Jong is yet to extend his deal at Camp Nou beyond the summer of 2026, and it has been reported in recent weeks that Liverpool are considering a shock approach ahead of the 2025-26 season.
Barcelona will have a huge decision to make on De Jong's future if no new deal can be struck with his entourage, as a sale next year would be their best chance of recouping a good chunk of the £70.8m that they paid for his services in 2019.
The 27-year-old was also memorably at the centre of a lengthy transfer tussle between Barcelona and Manchester United in the summer of 2022, when then-head coach Erik ten Hag pushed relentlessly to reunite with his former Amsterdam protege.
