Paris Saint-Germain\u00a0<\/strong>will battle\u00a0Manchester United\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Chelsea\u00a0<\/strong>for Barcelona ace\u00a0Frenkie de Jong<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Midfielder De Jong, 26, joined Barca from Ajax in 2019 and has made 207 appearances across all competitions since heading to Catalonia.<\/p>\n

United and Chelsea are known admirers of the Netherlands international, though Spanish outlet\u00a0Sport\u00a0say they will face competition from the French champions in any bidding war.<\/p>\n

PSG are expected to be active in the summer transfer market with talisman Kylian Mbappe set to join Real Madrid.<\/p>\n

Getting Mbappe off the wage bill would free up significant funds for Les Parisiens \u2014 though the report suggests they currently value De Jong at closer to \u00a368.5m.<\/p>\n

Given his contract still has two years to run, Barca are in a position of power but their very public financial woes do weaken their hand somewhat in negotiations.<\/p>\n

Erik ten Hag worked with De Jong previously at Ajax and is keen for the Red Devils to make a third bid for his signature, having failed with attempts in 2019 and 2022.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Chelsea are set for another busy summer of incomings and outgoings as owner Todd Boehly looks to reshuffle his underperforming pack at Stamford Bridge.<\/p>\n
