The article adds Barcelona "know City will not pay" his €400million release clause, though are not prepared to do a deal for below €100m. Speaking out on his future in February, De Jong said: “My future? The truth is that I’m a bit p*ssed off with what you people write in general! A lot of things are coming out that are not true, it’s irritating me,” De Jong told reporters in February. “Everything that is said in the media about my salary and my future are lies. It’s a lot of smoke.
“I consider the club to be my teammates, the staff, I’m enjoying it a lot… The media sometimes criticise my level, it doesn’t matter because everyone can have their own opinion. But I don’t accept lies. Don’t lie.”Bayern Munich are believed to have entered the race to sign City left-back Sergio Gomez.
