Europa Press via Getty ImagesFrenkie de Jong has officially committed his future to Barcelona after signing a contract extension until 2029 on Wednesday, and the Dutchman spoke after the ceremony to share his feelings on the renewal.One of the big topics surrounding De Jong throughout his time at Barça has been his salary, and the Dutchman made it very clear he does not intend to discuss the figures on his new deal and called out the press for influencing the way Barça fans think about him by discussing his wages.“I’m not going to say what I’m going to get paid.

It’s always been exaggerated and that’s affected how people see me.

If people read that in the newspapers, that if Frenkie is the highest paid, it’s your fault.

I’m happy to have renewed my contract with Barça.”“I’ve always wanted to be at Barça, and now that I’m here, I want to stay as long as possible.

I feel very good at the club, in the city, with my teammates, with the board of directors.

I want to be here much longer.”“As I’ve always said, I’ve always dreamed of playing for Barça.

Now that I’m living that dream, I want to continue to pursue it for many more years and win more titles.”Frenkie de Jong was never, is never, and will never be to blame for Barça’s financial troubles no matter how big his salary supposedly is.

He, like any employee anywhere, deserves to get paid every cent that the club decided to give him to begin with.All that matters is what he’s able to do on the pitch, and his quality has been on full display since the arrival of Hansi Flick.

He’s to many more years of Frenkie de Jong greatness, no matter how much it bothers people.
