Returns from loan De Jong's loan season with Barcelona has ended and he is now returning to Sevilla, the club announced Friday.

Impact De Jong scored six goals in 21 La Liga appearances (six starts) during his campaign with Barcelona, and his iconic late goals salvaged results for the club on numerous occasions. The 31-year-old is now on his way back to Sevilla, where he could continue as an effective impact substitute behind Rafa Mir and Youssef En-Nesyri at center forward if he stays there this season.

On bench in season finale De Jong was an unused substitute in Sunday's defeat against Villarreal.

Impact De Jong's arrival in Barcelona may have been taken by some as symbol of the club's recent hardships, but the tall, 31-year-old striker proved all of the doubters wrong with six goals -- most of them directly contributing to a Barcelona result, often in the final few minutes of the game -- in 21 La Liga appearances (six starts) this season. He will likely return to Sevilla when his loan ends in the summer, but he could forever be remembered as a Barcelona cult hero for his exploits this campaign.

Scores winner against Levante De Jong subbed into Sunday's match against Levante in the 84th minute and he scored a goal in the 3-2 victory.

Impact De Jong made his first La Liga appearance since February on Sunday in his return after missing a game with COVID-19, and he won the game for Barcelona with a 92nd-minute header. This was the fourth time this season he has scored a goal that turned a loss into a draw or a draw into a win, and it's the second time he's done it in second-half stoppage time. He has turned out to be a very valuable impact substitute behind Memphis Depay or Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang at center forward.

Available for weekend De Jong (illness) has been called up by Barcelona for Sunday's clash against Levante.

Tests positive for COVID-19 De Jong has tested positive for COVID-19, Barcelona announced Saturday.

Impact De Jong will miss at least one game against Sevilla on Sunday while in isolation, but he hasn't started in La Liga anyway since January and the additions of Ferran Torres and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

Adds goal in win De Jong scored one goal from one shot in four minutes of Sunday's 4-0 win over Athletic Club.

Impact De Jong hasn't started since January but still scored twice in three league appearances in February, which totaled just 15 minutes in time off the bench. With Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in even better form, it's unlikely de Jong will start much over the rest of the season even if he's scoring with confidence.

Nets at the death De Jong scored once on two shots (one on goal) during Sunday's two-all draw with Espanyol.

Impact De Jong was brought on as a last gasp hope to try and find the equalizer, and he did just that. Scoring in the 96th minute De Jong looked exceptionally calm in front of goal. Unfortunately he is only a super sub at this point, and has next to no fantasy value with that minimal role.

Takes three shots in win De Jong took three shots (one on target) and won two of two tackles in Sunday's 1-0 victory against Alaves.

Impact De Jong came into Sunday's game with a goal in each of his last two La Liga games, and although he didn't extend the streak against Alaves, he has played well enough recently to merit consideration to continue as the starting striker once Memphis Depay (undisclosed) returns from injury.

Impact De Jong has scored in two straight starts to silence some of his doubters after transfer rumors swirled around him over the holiday period.
