Arsenal keen on Jeremie Frimpong transfer after Rice and Timber deals but there's a problem

Arsenal have an active interest in Bayer Leverkusen full-back Jeremie Frimpong, football.london understands, but any deal will be difficult to complete. The Dutch international has interest from numerous clubs in England and on the continent.

The Dutchman wants guarantees regarding playing time which, with several options already in the right-back area at Arsenal is expected to be a tough sell. Ben White, Takehiro Tomiyasu and Cedric Soares all remain at the club for the time being.

The club are open to offers for Cedric Soares along with a number of others in the squad such as Nuno Tavares and Albert Sambi Lokonga. Edu is looking to recoup a significant amount of money this summer and has started strongly with Granit Xhaka set to join Bayer Leverkusen in a deal that should earn the club €25million (£21.5million), football.london understands.
