Premier League
Manchester City and Liverpool are emerging as the main contenders in the race to sign Jeremie Frimpong in the upcoming transfer window. The Dutch full-back, a key player at Bayer Leverkusen, has an informal agreement with his club to facilitate his departure in case of a specific offer, which has piqued the interest of these giants of the Premier League.
The defender has been waiting for the opportunity to return to English football after being part of Manchester City's youth setup. Now, at 24 years old and established as one of the most attacking full-backs in European football, his name features on Guardiola's team's priority list. However, the future of the Spanish coach could influence the team's transfer market moves.
The Premier League vies for Frimpong
Liverpool, on the other hand, is also keeping a close eye on Frimpong, as he would fit into their system due to his versatility in defense and attack. With Real Madrid lurking for Trent Alexander-Arnold, the 'reds' see the Dutch player as a viable alternative if their starting full-back decides for a change of scenery.
Although Bayer Leverkusen no longer has Frimpong's release clause active, they have agreed to consider offers around 40 million euros, a sum that both City and Liverpool could easily afford.
Real Madrid also has the full-back on their radar, but their priority remains Alexander-Arnold. Meanwhile, Frimpong seems inclined to return to the Premier League, setting up a direct battle between the two English clubs for his signing in the coming months.
