'Make that 8-0' – Fans all say the same thing after De Jong transfer update just hours after Man Utd's 7-0 hammering | The Sun

MANCHESTER UNITED have been trolled on social media as top transfer target Frenkie de Jong wants to stay at Barcelona.

This comes just hours after United suffered their heaviest ever Premier League loss with Liverpool beating them 7-0 at Anfield.

The Red Devils have been keeping tabs on De Jong since the summer when the midfielder's former Ajax manager Erik ten Hag took over.

Ten Hag wanted to build his midfield around his fellow Dutchman but the 25-year-old opted to stay at Barca and the Manchester giants turned to Casemiro.

But United are still monitoring De Jong ahead of the summer transfer window and want to pair him up with the Real Madrid legend, who has stood out in the middle of the park.

Recent reports suggested the Netherlands international is keen to reunite with Ten Hag and partner up with former rival Casemiro.

This poses as a fresh blow to United, who are still licking their wounds after their Liverpool thrashing.

And some fans decided to pour some more salt on Twitter after hearing that De Jong's situation remains unchanged.

One user tweeted: "Make that 8-0."
