On first viewing, Frenkie de Jong joining Barcelona from Ajax may not seem like a particularly brilliant piece of business from the Catalans.
They have spent £67.5m to bring the midfielder to Spain this summer. Hardly an astronomical fee by modern standards in football, but it is still a hefty sum of money for a 22-year-old with just seven international caps to his name. The fact that he has only scored six senior goals will also have raised a few eyebrows.
Yet there is something special about de Jong. We've established that he is not a goal-scoring midfielder, and he is not particularly quick or powerful on the ball.
