Frenkie de Jong fired a message to Xavi over his positioning
The Dutch midfielder has been linked with various other clubs and could be sold if the price is right
There isn’t a calm day in charge for Xavi at Barcelona. After Frenkie de Jong’s fine game for Holland against Belgium, he said: “Here in the national team I have a position that suits me better.”
While at Barcelona he plays as an interior midfielder, De Jong plays as a pivote with the Netherlands. “I like being the first player to receive the ball from the defenders,” he said.
He admitted that he plays in a different way in the national team than at Barcelona and it might help him play at a higher level.
