Two de Jong’s in Barcelona? Barcelona are hunting for a striker in Seville

The transfer window is coming to an end and Barcelona still want to make one more purchase after the departure of Emerson and speculation about Griezmann’s departure. It has chosen Luuk de Jong. Fabrizio Romano confirmed this on his Twitter account.

But the question remains what the 31-year-old Dutchman would be able to offer to the Catalan club.

After all, he has played only 18 minutes on the club and international scene in the last 3 months and last enjoyed a goal on 30 March this year when he contributed to the Netherlands’ 7:0 demolition of Gibraltar in a World Cup qualifier.

He last scored for the club on 6 March against Elche. Overall, de Jong’s stats in the league are pretty unimpressive for a top striker.

In 69 games played in La Liga, only 10 goals and one assist. In the cup, 10 games and 4 goals.

According to Fabrizio Romano, the transfer fee should be 5 million euros. This would be the eighth career move for the Dutchman, with most of his fame coming at PSV, where he scored well over 20 goals a season.
