​De Jong's father confirms Ajax exit likely: Barcelona best decision

Frenkie De Jong looks as though he is on his way out of Ajax.

The young Dutch midfielder can play as a defensive midfielder or a more creative central midfielder.

And he is linked to the best clubs in Europe, including Barcelona, Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain.

His father, John, has said a move is possible.

"You have to decide," John de Jong is quoted as saying by the Daily Express.

"He is a very intelligent boy, and he will make his decision in the spring.

"There is a 95 per cent chance of leaving Ajax, and Barca would be the best decision."
