Busquets praises and welcomes De Jong to Camp Nou: He is a spectacular footballer

Frenkie De Jong from the new season will wear the jersey of the Spanish giant Barcelona.

The Dutch midfielder has signed a five-year contract with the Catalans, while he continues to amaze the football world with the Ajax shirt.

The 21-year-old has been one of Ajax's key players in their success in the Champions League, where they eliminated Real Madrid and Juventus to reach the semi-finals.

"De Jong is a spectacular footballer. "There really aren't many footballers at his age who have that control of the ball and mobility on the field."

"Considering that he grew up in Ajax's academy, which is similar to ours, he meets all the conditions to be successful at Barcelona," said Busquets.

The transfer of the 21-year-old from Ajax has cost Barcelona 75 million euros plus 10 more in the form of bonuses. /Telegraph/
