Jeremie Frimpong is one of the fashionable names in European football. The Dutch full-back, who stands out for his route and a totally offensive game, practically as if he were a winger, has left this campaign with Xabi Alonso’s Bayer Leverkusen, the German champion, and It is one of the preferences in the transfer market for Barça, because, mainly, it is a request from Hansi Flick.
The new coach of the Barça team knows Frimpong well because he has been following him for several years, since he was at Celtic Glasgow. On his day, He wanted to take him to Bayern Munich and he considers that he is a very important footballer for his way of seeing football, with advanced wingers.
Frimpong, who is playing in the Euro Cup with the Netherlands, It has a termination clause of 40 million eurosas Fabrizio Romano reported and was able to contrast SPORT. Our medium, in the program ‘La Possession’, was the first to anticipate Barcelona’s interest in the footballer and now we can advance the difficulties that Bayer Leverkusen will encounter (and are already encountering).
Rising price, greater difficulty
And the German team does not plan to lower this clause one bit. To give a graphic example, they would not accept even 39 ‘kilos’, one less than the termination. It is true that this usually happens at the start of all negotiations and that afterwards the rope ‘loosens’. But it is also true that the Germans are very clear about it, and even more so for a footballer whose price is rising, who signed for 10 million euros in 2021 from Celtic and whose value is already currently (in Transfermarkt scales) at 50 ‘kilos’.
And with the Eurocup in between. Jeremie Frimpong, who is represented by his brother, has a contract until 2028 and with Xabi Alonso he has evolved a lot. He is excited to play in the Champions League, but the Barça interest also catches his attention.
A very serious club in its management
In any case, Barça finds itself facing a very tough ‘bone’ to crack. Bayer Leverkusen has a Spanish CEO, Fernando Carro, who stands out for being a very serious person with very clear ideas. The success of his project is evident after winning the first Bundesliga in history, always remembered for its unbeaten record from start to finish and for breaking the hegemony of Bayern Munich. In addition to winning the German Cup (DBF Pokal) and reaching the final of the Europa League, lost (the only KO of the season) 3-0 against Atalanta.
Jeremie Frimpong, 23 years old. He has played 48 games this season under the command of Xabi Alonso, in which he has more than scored double figures: 14 goals and 12 assists.
