Barcelona president Joan Laporta has confirmed the club have received offers for midfielder Frenkie de Jong but says the Catalans want to keep the Dutchman.
De Jong’s future has been making headlines in recent weeks with speculation Barca could be tempted to cash in on the 25-year-old.
Xavi has refused to rule out an exit and claimed the club’s finances could dictate De Jong’s future, but Laporta says Barca think the midfielder should continue his career at the Camp Nou.
“Frenkie has great quality; he knows our system and, yes, he is a coveted player in the market and we have received proposals, but we think he should continue at Barça,” he said.
