The marauding full-back is putting up superb numbers in the Bundesliga this season as Xabi Alonso&#8217;s side look set for a title battle with Bayern Munich.<\/p>\n<p>Now into his fourth season at Leverkusen, Frimpong has registered 13 goal contributions in his last 17 matches. The 22-year-old can operate at right-back, right wing-back or as a fully-fledged winger.<\/p>\n<p>United boss Erik ten Hag is rumoured to be a long-standing admirer, so Frimpong signing a five-year deal back in October will have come as a bitter blow to senior figures at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n<p>However, Sky Germany are reporting that the long-term deal includes a \u00a334.6million release clause, which becomes active next summer. Leverkusen may regret setting the bar so low given Frimpong&#8217;s scintillating form.<\/p>\n<p> <strong> Don&#8217;t miss&#8230; <\/strong> <strong>Man Utd hero Garnacho shows class in heartwarming moment with young supporter<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/Jeremie-Frimpong-Bayer-Leverkusen-5089624.jpg?r=1701180834835\"><\/p>\n<p>The report adds that Frimpong is &#8216;very keen&#8217; on a move elsewhere and could be tempted by the prospect of playing in the Premier League. Ten Hag counts Diogo Dalot and Aaron Wan-Bissaka as his current right-back options.<\/p>\n<p>But the United boss&#8217; tendency to play a back-four could work against his bid to lure Frimpong from Leverkusen. Chelsea are also understood to be fond of the Netherlands international, and their philosophy of offering lucrative long-term contracts to youngsters may turn the dial in their favour.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Support fearless journalism<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Read The Daily Express online, advert free<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Get super-fast page loading<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/logo\/logo-premium-subscription.png\"><\/p>\n<p> <strong> Read more&#8230; <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Mudryk &#8216;blamed Chelsea stars&#8217; in leaked private chat with former team-mate[INTERVIEW] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Chelsea &#8216;submit proposal&#8217; to land first January signing for Mauricio Pochettino[GOSSIP] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Chelsea &#8216;using former player to assist Osimhen transfer&#8217; with Napoli star keen[TRANSFERS] <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Pochettino&#8217;s occasional use of a back-five could also come into play, with Frimpong strongest going forward rather than tracking back.
