Transfer: De Jong speaks on former Ajax team-mate De Ligt joining him at Barcelona

New Barcelona signing, Frenkie de Jong, has said he would like to see his ex-teammate from Ajax, Matthijs de Ligt, join him at Camp Nou.

De Ligt is also being sought after by Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester United and Juventus this summer, after an impressive season.

De Jong, who was finally unveiled on Friday as a Barcelona player having agreed to join the club six months previously, says that even though he found the decision to move to Spain a simple one, it may not be the same for his international colleague.

"I'd like to see him [De Ligt] here, but I cannot decide.

"He has to make that decision with his family. When I saw Barca wanted me to play here, the decision was very easy," De Jong told reporters.
