Dutch legend Ruud Gullit has been talking about Frenkie de Jong ahead of the midfielder’s summer switch from Ajax to Barcelona.
The 21-year-old has attracted plenty of plaudits for his performances for the Eredivise side this season, and Gullit spoke about the youngster’s qualities.
“Frenkie De Jong is a free soul. He takes everything to the limit. He challenges you as an opponent.
”He makes it easy also for the rest of the team to take positions because he doesn’t lose the ball very much and also wants the ball. So therefore he’s a player like, if you want to compare, a little bit Zidane.
