Barcelona have reportedly not been contacted by Chelsea over a move for Frenkie de Jong.
The Netherlands international has been strongly linked with a move away from Camp Nou, with the Catalan giants said to be open to selling the midfielder to ease their financial issues.
There have been claims that Chelsea have made a £33m bid for the 24-year-old in the hope of securing his signature during the January transfer window.
However, according to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, Barcelona have not received ‘any offer or verbal proposal’ from the Champions League holders.
Romano claims that the Blues are instead focusing on bring a new full-back to the club, with Ben Chilwell and Reece James currently on the sidelines through injury.
De Jong has again been an important player for Barcelona during the 2021-22 campaign, making 24 appearances in all competitions, contributing one goal and two assists in the process.
Manchester United and Liverpool are also said to be admirers of the Dutchman.
