Xavi Drops Hint On Frankie De Jong's Departure

"I have said many times that Frenkie de Jong is very important. He has almost always been a starter under me and for me he is fundamental. Then there is also the financial situation of the club and it will have to be decided. I'm not talking about Frenkie, but in general," Xavi has said.

"In a few days, we have to know what economic situation we are in to start planning. See who we can count on and see on who we cannot count, the economic level determines it for us."

As per recent reports, Barcelona may sell Frenkie before June 30. The Dutchman is reportedly close to joining Manchester United.

Due to the Catalans' tough economic situation, the club may need to make a big sale before the end of the current financial year to stay within the budget.
