Story updated
The story in brief
28-second readBarcelona star Frenkie de Jong has seen his talents made use of in a new role during recent sessions at the club’s training ground. This comes amid the understanding that Hansi Flick is considering fielding the former Ajax man as a defender.
Dutchman De Jong is for his part yet to take to the pitch in any capacity this season. After suffering a serious knee injury at the World Cup, the 29-year-old has spent the months since undergoing conservative treatment.
The last week has seen De Jong take major strides forward in his recovery, though, now considered closer than ever to being medically cleared.
