Frenkie de Jong shined again for the Spanish giants in their 3-0 win at Eibar on Saturday and earned rave reviews in the media.
After the game, Barcelona boss Ernesto Valverde stated, “Frenkie adds a lot to our game. He keeps going and is already a very important player for us. He has enormous potential. I think we haven’t seen the best of Frenkie yet. Although he is going through a great season start. ”
De Jong was also happy with the performance on Saturday, “It was enough, we won. It was easier than the previous away games, so it was a good day for us.
“We were well prepared for Eibar, we know it can be difficult here. They normally play with a lot of pressure. But today we played well and often found the space behind the defence.”
