Manchester United fans are convinced Frenkie de Jong is joining them in the summer after a video shows his reaction to the celebrations following their win over Barcelona.

The Red Devils came from behind to beat the La Liga giants 2-1 (4-3 on aggregate) at Old Trafford on Thursday to book their spot in the next round of the competition.

Second-half goals from Fred and Antony ensured a famous win as the Old Trafford faithful were treated to a classic European night.

Raphael Varane joined Lisandro Martinez, Diogo Dalot and Casemiro in celebrating the result after the final whistle in exuberant celebrations.

Varane ramped up the crowd by performing several fist pumps, with a video capturing De Jong's reaction to the full-time scenes.

Footage shows the Dutch midfielder watching on as Man United fans all made the same point.

They are convinced he's joining the Premier League club in the summer following their failed pursuit last year.

One Twitter user wrote: "Nah De Jong is defo joining in the summer I’m certain of it, look at him."

A second tweeted: "Hahah naaah look at Frenkie de Jong here 'how am I going to explain to my girlfriend that we’re leaving the Spanish beaches and moving to Manchester?'"

A third added: "At least HE'S experienced our expectations. He will come will all his heart this time. Welcome FDJ."

A fourth said: "When he comes, we have to thank Varane for selling Old Trafford to him, look at Varane bro."

A fifth commented: "Man love what he sees! All that energy and the fan support."

Another exclaimed: "He’s the missing piece ffs next szn is a movieeee."

Erik ten Hag wanted to snap up De Jong following his appointment last summer. But the club failed to lure the 25-year-old to Manchester, but are thought to still be interested in acquiring his services ahead of the 2023/24 season.
