A month after the end of the transfer window, Deco took stock of FC Barcelona 's summer moves in an exclusive interview with Mundo Deportivo . As the main person responsible for the squad for the past two seasons, he focused particularly on the contractual situation of Frenkie de Jong , one of the key players in Flick's squad, whose current contract expires in June 2026.
"We're in talks. Frenkie is really enjoying being here. He's matured at every level, with his family, in the team... If you're a player with character, you don't just want to stay to be at Barcelona, but because you want to fight for titles, and he sees that he can fight for titles. He sees that and he wants to continue here. At the club, we consider him a fundamental player for the current project and for the years to come, so I think we'll achieve that." When asked if he sees an extension coming, Deco simply replies: "Yes, I do."
