However, De Jong insisted on a number of occasions that he was not interested in leaving Camp Nou. There are again rumors surrounding the midfielder, with Man United allegedly preparing to reignite their interest in 2023.
A recent report claimed that De Jong had told Red Devils boss Erik ten Hag that he would be interested in making the move to Old Trafford next year. However, De Jong recently reiterated that he wants to stay at Barcelona while speaking on the Amazon Prime Video docuseries called 'FC Barcelona: A new Era'.
"I see myself playing here for a long time. I don't care for rumours about whether I'm going to another club or staying here. We haven't spoken about it and no one from the club has told me anything. I don't think it will happen," said De Jong.
