Former Ajax player, Frenkie de Jong agrees that he is yet to play his best football for Barcelona even if he does not regret his move to the Spanish club.
As he battles to stay consistent for his new club, reports have said the Holland baller might be questioning his decision to join the La Liga giant.
However, speaking recently, he revealed that he is happy with the choice he made because he is at the best club in the world.
He added that he wants to give his best and have very wonderful years at the club.
His words, “No, that’s not true. I don’t regret having signed for Barca, not for one second.
“I am really happy because I always wanted to play here. I am playing with players who for me are genuine legends. I am enjoying myself and I am learning a lot, too. I am at the best club in the world. living in a wonderful city with great weather.”
On if he sees himself as a Barca legend in future: “It’s not something I can say. But I can give my best and have some wonderful years at Barca. Many years.
“Now, I am focused on working hard and being at my best. I hope I can be remembered: maybe not as a legend, but as a good player.”
“I hope to prove myself. I always wanted to play for Barca.
“I don’t know what will happen in the future, but I am happy here and there’s no step forward from Barca. There’s no better level.”
Pn his role models at the club, “It’s difficult to pick one… but when I arrived, [Sergio] Busquets helped me with many things.
“I could say he took care of me in a certain sense: for example, the first day I arrived in Barcelona before training even started, he sent me a message to ask if I needed anything and he reserved a table in a restaurant for me and my girlfriend. He behaved really well with me. If I had to pick one, I would say Busquets, even though everyone has helped me a lot.”
Asked to rate himself thus far, “Six. For now, six or a six-and-a-half.
“I have played a lot of minutes and I’ve more or less played well, I am happy, but I know my performances could be much better.”
