Welcome,  Frenkie!" De Jong follows a number of  former Ajax players to  join the Liga club, with Johan Cruyff, Ronald Koeman, Patrick Kluivert, Frank de  Boer and Luis Suarez among the most successful to have played for both sides.The  Netherlands international playmaker has scored three goals and bagged one assist  in the Eredivisie this term, after picking up seven assists last season. Although his preferred role is in midfield, he has  featured at centre-back for Ajax in the past and is known for his  versatility.  He also made a cameo performance in the Europa League final against  Manchester United, coming on as a second-half substitute.   De Jong could feature against Barca's rivals Real  Madrid when Ajax take them on in the last 16 of the Champions League in  February.His team-mate at the Dutch club Matthijs de Ligt, who won the Golden  Boy award back in December, has also been linked with a move to Barca as well as  Man City, PSG and Juventus. The centre-back's future is yet to be decided, but  City are reported to be the most likely destination for the 19-year-old at  present with Pep Guardiola a keen admirer of De Ligt's ability to play out from  the back as well as his defensive strength. </blockquote>
