de jong, chelsea

Alex McLeish has claimed it would be a “real blow” to Man United if Frenkie de Jong chooses to move to Chelsea – and claims that the Dutchman would love a switch to London

De Jong is a player that he been in the transfer headlines all summer – amid all the speculation that he is a player that Manchester United are desperate to try and sign

However – they have been unable to get a transfer deal done – as the Dutchman does not want to leave the Camp Nou and join a side that is not competing for titles – or playing in the Champions League

When asked if it will be disappointing for United if De Jong chooses the Blues, McLeish told Football Insider: “It’s definitely a blow if he decides to go to Chelsea.

“Let’s face it, it was always in the news, we heard about it every day, we were all privy to the deal going one way or the other.

“For one of your great rivals to come in at the last minute, at the 11th hour and take him away from your clutches, that will be a real blow to United.

“Frenkie de Jong, by the sound of things, would love a London move.“

De Jong has been messed around too much by Barcelona this summer and should leave the club – what they have done to him is disgraceful and he should join a club that will actually want him

If he does make that move to Stamford Bridge over the next few days – he will be a fantastic signing for the club as he is a proven world class player that has impressed at the very highest level of the game
