“He was instrumental in Bayern Leverkusen clinching their inaugural title in the German Bundesliga, and I’m astounded that Manchester United has already secured his signature discreetly. It’s undoubtedly Manchester United’s most remarkable transfer to date.” – Manchester United have finalized the acquisition of Bayer Leverkusen’s standout player with a £34 million release clause! 💰

Manchester United has reportedly entered discussions regarding the potential acquisition of Bayer Leverkusen’s right-back, Jeremie Frimpong, who originally emerged from rivals Manchester City’s youth academy. According to German journalist Christian Falk, as cited on Caught Offside, the Red Devils have engaged in ‘concrete talks’ with Frimpong, who has made a significant impression at Leverkusen this season, contributing to their Bundesliga title triumph under manager Xabi Alonso.

Despite Frimpong’s contract with Leverkusen extending until 2028, there exists a £34 million release clause, a figure that has captured the interest of Manchester United and could potentially lead to his departure. Currently, Erik ten Hag’s choices for the right-back position include Diogo Dalot and Aaron Wan-Bissaka. However, Wan-Bissaka’s struggles with injuries this season, coupled with reported interest from Inter Milan, may create an opportunity for Frimpong to replace him.

Frimpong brings with him a familiarity with British football, having commenced his career in Manchester City’s youth setup. His development began at the Etihad, where he made 21 appearances for the U21s, tallying two goals and as many assists.

Furthermore, Manchester United recently appointed Omar Berrada, previously City’s chief football operations officer, who is poised to assume the role of chief executive at United this summer. Berrada’s presence may provide insights into Frimpong’s abilities, given his experience at City, potentially influencing United’s recruitment strategy.
