Author of a sensational last season in the Bayer Leverkusen jersey, Jeremie Frimpong (23 years old) logically arouses covetousness during this summer transfer window. Announced in the sights of PSG or FC Barcelona, the Dutch player, under contract until June 2028 with the German team, is also coveted by a Premier League bigwig. Indeed, according to the latest information from Sport Imagethe Dutch international (6 caps, 1 goal) is being tracked by Liverpool.
Very discreet on the transfer market, the Mersey club would, in fact, be seduced by the idea of enlisting the Amsterdam native, valued at 50 million euros and who has a release clause of around 40-45M€. German champion with Bayer Leverkusen, the former Celtic Glasgow player would thus bring all his qualities to the Reds’ right wing, he who is coming off a sparkling 2023-2024 season with 9 goals and 7 assists in the Bundesliga.
Liverpool like Frimpong but…
On the Liverpool side, Frimpong could thus play under the orders of his compatriot, Arne Slot, recently appointed to the bench of the English club to succeed Jürgen Klopp. In addition, the 1m72 right-hander would have a significant role, especially at a time when Trent Alexander-Arnold, a possible competitor for his position, now plays regularly as a midfielder. It should be noted, in this regard, that Real Madrid is also in discussions with the 25-year-old Englishman, who could therefore completely free up the right side of the defense.
It remains to be seen whether the two teams will manage to find common ground and whether Frimpong will accept, for his part, to take on a first challenge in the Premier League. Recently questioned about the various rumours about him, the main person concerned had also offered himself a notable exit. “Barça’s interest? They’re just rumours… I don’t read rumours! Rumours are just rumours, anyone can say anything”had notably ensured the right piston trained at Manchester City. As a reminder, during the 2023-2024 exercise, the number 30 of Bayer had scored 14 goals and delivered 12 assists in 47 matches in all competitions.
