Dutch defender of Ghanaian descent, Jeremie Frimpong, is reportedly keen on a move to Spain in the summer transfer window.
This comes amid links to FC Barcelona.
Frimpong, who has been key for Bayer Leverkusen since his move from Celtic, was instrumental in the club’s historic unbeaten Bundesliga campaign last season.
Sources have revealed that the versatile player is prioritising a switch to La Liga despite receiving several offers from top Premier League sides.
La Liga outfit Barcelona have been closely monitoring Jeremie Frimpong’s progress, with sporting director Deco placing him high on the club’s list of defensive targets.
The player’s attacking flair, pace, and versatility have caught the attention of the Catalan giants, who are seeking to reinforce their backline with a dynamic full-back.
At the moment, the 24-year-old is protected by a release clause believed to be between €35 million and €40 million.
While Bayer Leverkusen are open to sanctioning his transfer, the club will only agree to the right deal.
The youngster will assess his options in the summer window before deciding on his next club.
