Barcelona's central midfielder Frankie Dijon has been plagued by injuries recently, and despite returning to the field, his form is far from what it used to be. According to the Spanish daily sports newspaper, Barcelon's medical team had recommended the 27-year-old Dutch international to undergo surgery to solve the injury, but he decided to opt for conservative treatment, a decision that makes his road to recovery particularly long. In addition to this, Frankie Dijon has refused to renew his contract with Barcelona and is looking for a move to a new club, much like his former colleague Umdi. His "do-nothing" attitude has given Barcelona's management a headache.
In April of this year, Frankie Dijon missed nearly six months of action with a right ankle injury. Although he has returned to the game, but has never been able to find the best form, reduced to the bench. Barcelona originally hoped that he could completely recover through surgery, but he firmly refused, a move that exacerbated the tension between the two sides. It is reported that the Barcelona management, after seeing that Frankie Dijon could not play the proper level, intends to sell him, but the other party is unwilling to leave, also unwilling to renew the contract. He seems to be intent on leaving as a free agent in the summer of 2026, an intention that will undoubtedly put more pressure on Barcelona's finances.
Frankie Dijon has made the same mistake as Umtiti in the Spanish media. The French international's "three no's" strategy - refusing surgery, refusing contract renewal, refusing transfers, and enjoying his high salary - lasted until last summer. It seems that his relationship with Barcelona may be coming to an end.
