  • “Do you expect to get a spot in the Starting XI at Barça?”

  • “Frenkie or De Jong on the back of your shirt?”

Frenkie: “I don’t know yet, I will talk about it with family and sponsors might have a say in it as well.”

  • “Did you already find a house in Barcelona?”

  • “Winning the World Cup with Holland or Champions League with Ajax?”

Frenkie: “That’s very hard to choose. But right now I would say winning the CL with Ajax."
