A number of Europe’s top clubs, including City, Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain, were interested in the Netherlands international, but he favoured a move to LaLiga instead.According the the Daily Mirror, it is thought his huge wage demandswould not be matched by the Premier League champions and manager Pep Guardiola conceded defeat in his pursuit of the midfielder. “If you are the only one who want players, its easy,” Guardiola said. “Normally when you are involved with Madrid and Barcelona, you are going to lose.“You have to be quicker and more efficient.”De Jong admitted he spoke with Guardiola, but a move to Barcelona was too tempting to resist.“I spoke with Guardiola about a move to Man City,” the youngster told Dutch outletNOS. “Clubs all try to convince you when they want you.“I am happy and proud that they did so much to get me.“Barcelona have always been a dream club for me. The fact that they were so serious about getting me and that I have a good chance of getting playing time made the decision a bit easier.De Jong remains at Ajax for the remainder of the season2

I have always been a big fan of Messi, although I liked the entire team.”De Jong becomes Barcelona’sthird January signing, after Jason Murillo and Kevin-Prince Boateng.
