On New Year’s Day, De Telegraaf reported that Club America were interested in signing De Jong but added that no official offer had been made to PSV Eindhoven.
However, speaking at a press conference (quoted by ESPN), Miguel Herrera confirmed that De Jong is their main transfer target this summer.
He said, “De Jong is the [player] that most interests us. We’ve followed it up and [the opportunity] has been laid on the table.”
Club America are said to be ready to pay PSV €7 million for the Dutch international, who has scored four goals in fifteen Eredivisie matches this season.
