Dutch midfielder Frenkie de Jong has told Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf that his future club Barcelona urged him and his Ajax teammates to knock Real Madrid out of the Champions League.

De Jong joins Barcelona – who have beaten Madrid in both the Copa del Rey and La Liga over the last week – next season after a deal was completed in January.

“I spoke to them when I signed the contract and they told me to try to knock out Real Madrid, as that would be great for Barca too,” he said.

De Jong played a key role as Ajax overturned a 2-1 deficit to spank Real Madrid 4-1 at the Santiago Bernabeu to book their place in the last eight. (ESPN)
