As per the latest reports, Miralem Pjanic is ready to lower his salary in order to continue at Barcelona. That is despite him not being guaranteed a role on the team this season.
Amid these reports, the fans remembered Frenkie de Jong. The press says that the Dutchman is unwilling to lower his salary or leave the club despite the club needing him to do one of those things.
stoichkov9FCB: “Pjanic lowering his salary ahead of a certain number 21 at the club.”
SIDbarcelona: “Pjanic, at 50 years old, having played 3 games in two years, being willing to give up money before Friki De Jong must be a joke. Ryghan told me that the Dutch half-man has been a cule since he came out of his mother’s womb.”
BarcaCant: “It’s incredible that Pjanic has shown more love for the club than De Jong.”
wwofbr: “Frenkie’s salary is definitely a problem. The fact that we’ve only heard of his refusal to lower his salary while we have Pjanic who’s willing to bring it down just to have a place in the team says a lot, doesn’t it?”
GxlDePaulinho: “Pjanic wanting to lower his salary (again) to continue at Barca gives me more reasons to hate Frenkie Ping Pong.”
Now that Pjanic is ready to take a pay cut, Barca may keep him at the club as long as Xavi tells them he counts on the midfielder. De Jong is still at the exit ramp.
