Where does Frenkie de Jong fit in at Barcelona when fit?
Story updated
The story in brief
32-second readFrenkie de Jong is back in full training with Barcelona and hoping to make a comeback shortly from a knee injury that means he’s not featured at all for Hansi Flick’s side this season.
Barca enjoyed a perfect start to the season without De Jong before the international break, winning all eight matches and scoring goals for fun. The arrival of Rodri in the summer from Manchester City, means that De Jong hasn’t really been missed during his time on the sidelines.
Indeed the Dutchman looks like facing a real battle for minutes when he returns given Flick also has Pedri, Gavi, Marc Bernal, Dani Olmo, Fermin Lopez and young Brian Farinas in his first-team squad.
