On August 3, a bombshell made waves in the soccer world: according to Picture Post editor-in-chief Falck, De Jong's transfer rumors will come to naught and Bayern will have nothing to do with him this summer.
Previously, the media have speculated that De Jong if received Bayern or Chelsea and other Champions League giants of the offer, perhaps the intention to go. And Bayern also pay close attention to this, but the latest news from Falque is surprising: Bayern has no intention of introducing De Jong in this summer.
It is worth mentioning that De Jong has a contract with Barcelona until 2026. Last season, he played 47 games for the team, contributing 4 goals and 5 assists in a respectable performance.
