Manchester United are reportedly monitoring the situation of Jeremie Frimpong, the talented full-back from Bayer Leverkusen. According to a report from Manchester Evening News, the Red Devils may be in the market for a right-back at the end of the season and Frimpong is a potential target for them.
Frimpong was already on Manchester United’s radar last summer, but they ultimately decided to stick with Diogo Dalot and Aaron Wan-Bissaka. However, MEN suggests that Wan-Bissaka could be sold in the summer, opening up a spot for Frimpong as his replacement.
The 23-year-old defender has become an integral part of Bayer Leverkusen’s squad in the Bundesliga. He has been a key contributor, with 8 goals and 10 assists in all competitions. Frimpong’s attacking prowess could bring a new dimension to Manchester United’s play.
Wan-Bissaka has faced criticism for his limited impact going forward, and Frimpong would be a significant upgrade in that regard. Additionally, Frimpong has the versatility to play as a wing-back as well.
The big question now is whether Manchester United can reach an agreement with Bayer Leverkusen for the services of the talented Dutch defender. It seems likely that Frimpong would be interested in a move to Old Trafford, as it would be a major step forward in his career. Joining Manchester United would provide him with the opportunity to test himself against some of the world’s best attackers in the Premier League, while also competing for major trophies in the seasons to come.
