Sell if that's the case. He can't leave for free. That's for sure.

The smart birdy is trying to play the same card as in summer 22.
'I am not leaving, I am not reducing'
and still continue screwing the club
There can be only one answer to this.
Allemany showed the way with Dembele, but they didn't let him follow up.
Mbape caved in after 2 months of not being part of the team.
I hope Deco and Laporta can still save their ass and Laporta's disastrous spell by taking the right measures here

No player reduces his salary, they are not morons. This is a business, but individuals like Birdy don't understand that.
Players will come, if we have the money to buy/pay them. Barcelona as a club and city is a big attraction.
FDJ isn't the biggest money pit in this club's recent history. But he'll leave with 80-100 mil euros in his accounts. He was top earner after Messi left and that should have meant he is our best player, but he wasn't. In the only season we won the league with him in the squad Stegen was our best player(was actually player of the season in LL).

Frenkie de Jong does not want to renew his contract with Barcelona nor accept a transfer. His idea is to continue with the contract he signed in 2020.
We need to kick him out of the club ASAP.

Maybe he knows the club wasted their money with Xavi and his signings so his salary wasn't the culprit in their financial problems. He also sees real dead weight around him on the pitch who need sold first. If we get a proper coach to turn things around he might be willing to negotiate.

De Jong’s contract isn’t up until July 2026 but the club needs to sort it out while they still have leverage. If he stays without extending then it’s all lost. Birdy’s proposition might seem radical but it might be our only choice.
Btw. sincerely doubt anyone agrees to match his current salary if the numbers I saw are to be believed.

"It's obvious, isn't it? Frenkie is a very important player and he feels comfortable at the club. It all depends on him," Xavi has told the media when asked about Frenkie de Jong's situation.
"This is not the right time to talk about this. There are four months left in the season and we are not talking about possible departures. We are thinking about La Liga and the Champions League.
"Frenkie has had good games and others not so good, like the entire team. We have lacked consistency and regularity. We all have to take a step forward," the Barca boss also said.

Frenkie destroying the press
The Dutchman was speaking ahead of the Catalans' Champions League last 16 first leg clash with Napoli this week, and took the opportunity to fire back at the press which has made him "angry" for some of the things it writes about the 26-year-old.
"Things come out that aren't true. I can't understand why they go around saying things that are lies. It's a little embarrassing," the former Ajax man stated.
"You're talking about my contract," De Jong said later, adding that "there's a lot of smoke" flying around if it is being claimed that he is earning over $40 million a year.
Just under a fortnight ago, Esport3 in Catalonia reported that De Jong is currently the highest-paid member of the Barca squad who will earn $26.7 million (€24.8 million) this season, $25 million (€23.2 million) next term, and $24.8 million (€23 million) in the final year of his contract which expires in mid-2026.
"But this is far from the truth. I'm very happy at Barca, it's the club of my dreams. I hope to stay here for many years," said De Jong, who is being linked with a possible move away from the outfit he joined in 2019.
