De Jong proves his worth to Barcelona in 4 different positions

Frenkie de Jong has proven his importance to FC Barcelona, showcasing great versatility by playing in four different positions over two weeks. He had a significant impact in the team's victory over Atlético, winning 2-1.

Mundo Deportivo highlights the versatility of the player, who played as a playmaker in the final minutes of the clásico, a centre-back against Alavés, a right-back against Atlético, and a defensive midfielder during the closing stages of the matches against Aston Villa and Atlético.

Frenkie de Jong has shown great readiness to help the team by responding to Hans Flick's decision to deploy him at right-back, despite not being accustomed to playing in that position, confirming his ability to contribute in multiple roles.

In 45 minutes against Atlético, the player completed 65 passes out of 67 with a success rate of 97%. He also made 22 completed passes in the final third of the pitch and regained possession of the ball three times.

Despite the strong competition for the midfield position, Frenkie de Jong's recent performances enhance his importance in Hansi Flick's plans, especially with his ability to play in various positions, which FC Barcelona needs to compete for all titles.
