De Jong rejects Barcelona to stay in Ajax

21-year-old Frenkie De Jong has confirmed that he will remain in Ajax following their qualification for the Champions League.

Several prior reports had suggested that Barcelona were willing to pay big for the midfielder but he has now said himself that he would like to play the Champions League with Ajax.

He told NOS:

“Maybe someday I’ll join Barcelona, but not this season,”

“I’m staying at Ajax. I think it will be a good year.

“I’d love to play with Ajax against Barcelona. Our squad is good and we deserved to reach the group stage. Now we’re about to find out what we’re capable of in the Champions League.

“It will be my first time [facing those big opponents], but I hope to draw a group with perspective to march on.”
