Frenkie de Jong responds to question about possible Manchester United move

Frenkie de Jong has given his first comments surrounding a possible move to Manchester United, although they were noncommittal.

The FC Barcelona midfielder is under intense speculation about a possible transfer. He’s playing in the UEFA Nations League for the Netherlands now, and it was after a 2-2 draw with Poland that he answered the question.

The interviewer asked, “Are you trading the beaches of Catalonia for the cold of Manchester?”

De Jong laughed and tried searching for what to say.

“No— I think— Well—,” he began.

“I can’t, I can’t say anything,” he finally said.
