Juventus news, double blow after De Jong as another starlet also prefers Barca
De Jong officially completed a €75m (plus add-ons) move to Barcelona this evening; in a deal which looked inevitable but proves the ever increasing demand, and cost, of young talents like De Jong.
Along with Juventus, Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain are in talks to potentially sign De Ligt but it will come down to the player, with the help of his agent Mino Raiola, to decide where he will play.
Eyes are now on De Jong at Barcelona to see how the Dutch starlet performs and, if he does well, De Ligt's price will surely rise as a result.
