According to SPORT, negotiations advanced quickly under De Jong’s new agent, Sebastien Ledure, with talks conducted efficiently and without setbacks. This marked a clear contrast to past discussions under his former representative, which often stalled.
The process has already moved to the exchange of documents, with De Jong giving his full approval and the club’s general director, Manel del Río, signing off. Only the signatures of President Joan Laporta, Vice President Rafa Yuste, and several board members remain, with an official announcement expected within days.
