De Jong is 'flatly refusing' to move to Man United, who have been told to give up hope of the transfer by his agent. Chelsea are among a pair of clubs to be encouraged to bid for the Dutch midfielder. MUFC CFC
meanwhile claim United are sure De Jong remains ‘open to joining the club’, but also state that Dursun is trying to convince both Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea to join the bidding.
The pair have been encouraged as De Jong, though his preference has always been to stay at Barcelona, would rather join a Champions League club if he is forced to leave the Nou Camp. Former Aston Villa striker Gabriel Agbonlahor believes United should give De Jong an “ultimatum” to avoid further embarrassment as the transfer saga continues to drag.“A club of Man United’s stature, how have they fallen where De Jong has said ‘Let me keep you on hold and make my mind up in a couple of months’. That isn’t how Man United are used to being treated, usually it’s ‘I’ll sign for Man United, let’s get it done’.
“It’s a bit embarrassing for them the longer it goes on, to be honest. Maybe they’ve got to give him an ultimatum and say ‘There is this date. You either sign or we are moving on to other players’.”
