Manchester United linked with surprise move for Bayer Leverkusen right-back Jeremie Frimpong

Frimpong, a dynamic player, exhibited his prowess by participating in 38 matches for Bayer Leverkusen during the course of this season. In these appearances, he showcased his scoring ability by netting an impressive tally of 12 goals while also demonstrating his creativity through 11 assists.
Moreover, Jeremie Frimpong represented the Netherlands in two matches, adding an international dimension to his career. His performances both domestically and internationally have garnered attention from various clubs, including Manchester United.
One key aspect that adds intrigue to the negotiations is Frimpong’s contractual situation. His contract with Bayer Leverkusen includes an exit clause that remains valid until 2028. Remarkably, this exit clause is set at a substantial £40 million, reflecting the high regard in which Frimpong is held by his current club.
However, for clubs interested in acquiring Frimpong’s services, time is of the essence. The window of opportunity afforded by the exit clause is limited, with its validity extending only until the commencement of the European Championships in June. Therefore, any potential suitors for the talented right-back must act swiftly to capitalize on this opportunity.
