Jose Enrique has suggested on Twitter Barcelona midfielder and reported Manchester United target Frenkie de Jong as a potential target for Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool in the summer transfer window.

The former Liverpool star has noted that Barcelona are having financial problems.

And the pundit has suggested that Liverpool could have a chance to sign De Jong in the summer of 2023.

According to The Guardian, Manchester United want to sign the Netherlands international midfielder in the summer transfer window.

United manager Erik ten Hag wanted to bring the 25-year-old to Old Trafford last summer, and the Dutchman reportedly remains keen on signing his compatriot.
