- Jeremie Frimpong has attracted attention from four top European clubs after a successful season in the Bundesliga
- Real Madrid, Arsenal, Man City and Man Utd have all voiced interest
- The defender is leaning towards an exit from Bayer Leverkusen
Before the summer transfer market opens, Arsenal, Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Manchester City have all shown interest in Jeremie Frimpong. Manchester City is also interested in him.
The 23-year-old defender had the finest season of his career to yet in 2023/24, scoring a staggering 14 goals and seven assists from a right wing-back position across all competitions. This was the best season of his career to date.
Frimpong’s contributions have been essential to Leverkusen’s remarkable season, having contributed to the team’s advancement to the finals of both the DFB-Pokal and the Europa League. Additionally, Frimpong has helped Leverkusen win their first ever Bundesliga championship.
“Frimpong may look to move away from Leverkusen this summer,” according to reports from Bild. A number of major teams are reportedly contemplating a move for the wing-back, and they are interested in acquiring him.
Real Madrid, the reigning champions of La Liga, as well as Manchester City, Manchester United, and Arsenal, all have an interest in the player. Another Bundesliga club, Bayern Munich, has also shown interest in the player, but given that a new coach has not yet been selected for the next season, it seems doubtful that the player will be moving to Munich.
Frimpong is now under contract with Leverkusen until the year 2028, and the agreement includes a departure clause that is worth a bargain forty million euros. It has been reported that the international player from the Netherlands has to make a choice on his future before the forthcoming European Championship. This indicates that the defender is now in a short amount of time.
For Xabi Alonso, who has reaped the advantages of Frimpong’s flexibility both in front of goal and in defense, the departure of Frimpong would be a devastating loss. Frimpong has been a valuable asset to the team.
When Leverkusen plays FC Augsburg on the last day of the season, they are scheduled to formally hoist the league trophy above their heads. This will take place on Saturday.
Although Frimpong has not yet made any statements on his future, reports indicate that the Netherlands international player is required to make a choice regarding his future prior to the 2017 European Championship, which will take place in June.
