PSG Walking Away from Barcelona Sensation Opens Door for Bayern Munich | OneFootball

Paris Saint-Germain are looking to bolster their midfield this summer as they aim to build a team in the post-Kylian Mbappé era. Over the last few months, various names, including Frenkie de Jong, have been linked to the French giants.

However, a recent report from SPORT revealed PSG are dropping any attempt to negotiate a possible transfer for the 26-year-old after this season. According to the Spanish media outlet, the Ligue 1 side are also fighting a deep battle to balance its books.

The capital club prioritizes reducing the team’s costs and aligning its budget to comply with the Financial Fair Play regulations. Furthermore, Barcelona’s desire for at least €80 million is causing the Parisians to close this file.

When one door closes, another one opens, and the Daily Mail (h/t Mundo Deportivo) reports that Bayern Munich has reignited its interest in de Jong and inquired about the possibility of signing the Dutch midfielder from FC Barcelona this summer.

It will be interesting to see if the Spanish side get the price they’re looking for when it comes to de Jong. Nonetheless, there will be suitors regardless of PSG deciding to step away.
