"Barcelona" club midfielder Frenkie de Jong commented on his injury situation:

"Let me tell all the "Barca" fans about my injury. I am suffering and I am very sad.

I love playing football the most, especially in Barcelona and the Netherlands national team.

When I am injured, I experience a lot of pain."

"I just had bad luck, and it was an unfortunate incident. Something fell on me during one of the training sessions, and I felt discomfort in my knee.

Later, the situation only got worse, but I kept playing because the World Cup is my dream."

"When I returned to Barcelona after the tournament, they showed me that the injury was more serious than it had been in the US. It was a huge shock that nobody expected.

Now I have to stop and focus on my recovery."

29-year-old Frenkie de Jong has been playing for the Netherlands national team since 2018 and has scored two goals in 68 matches.

In the last season, he scored once in 38 matches.
