'After €65m new verbal bid, Barca ask for €85/86m fee.'
United boss Erik ten Hag is keen to reunite with De Jong after their successful time together at Ajax.
Two current Ajax stars that Ten Hag’s side are looking at are Brazilian winger Antony and Argentine defender Lisandro Martinez., Van der Kraan said: “Martinez has two offers from England, one is from Arsenal and one is from Manchester United. But, when I say offer, there’s been an offer to the club to talk, there’s been offer to his agent to discuss things.
“And there is not an absolute concrete money offer on the table yet but that could soon happen. Then again he’s an expensive one because Ajax are demanding £45m- £50m for this player. “Why is this? Ajax have no need to sell any more players. They have the money, they are financially ok and they have said: look, if anybody comes in for Martinez, or Antony for instance – who is worth £80m in the eyes of Ajax – the prices they are asking are absolutely huge because they have no need to sell.
“And they know Man United, like many clubs in Europe at this moment, need players, so it’s a very awkward position Manchester United are in at this moment.”
