Spanish outlet Sport has claimed that Frenkie De Jong has absolutely no interest in heading to Old Trafford this summer and would rather head to Chelsea should he be pushed out of Barcelona.

Frenkie de Jong has no interest in joining Manchester United because he dislikes the city and believes the club is run erratically, a new report in Spain has claimed.
But Sport's report claims that the player has zero interest in making the move to Manchester, a city he is not a fan of.
He is also said to hold real concerns over how United function, with the player's view said to be that it is run 'erratically' by management
A third factor working against United is that they cannot offer him Champions League football next season having only managed to secure Europa League football prior to Ten Hag's arrival.
While there is a reluctance from De Jong to accept being pushed out of Barcelona, his dream club, it has been reported that it would be Chelsea, not Manchester United, that would be his pick in England.
He is 'not closed' to the idea of a switch to Stamford Bridge given Chelsea do boast Champions League football and De Jong is said to appreciate the 'project' and 'structure' that is being built under new controlling owner Todd Boehly.
London is also viewed as a 'very attractive city' to live in for De Jong and his fiancee Mikky Kiemeney.
Bayern Munich is another landing spot that would appeal to De Jong, it is claimed. His former team-mate and close friend Matthijs de Ligt has just joined the Bundesliga outfit on a deal until 2027.
