Celtic could be set for a bumper transfer windfall with Jeremie Frimpong's blistering form catching the eye of Europe's top clubs. But they are likely to be contrasting fortunes for Moussa Dembele, who's contract continues to run down at Lyon with his value plummeting.
Frimpong departed Parkhead for Bayer Leverkusen in January 2021 and has since hit the ground running with eye-catching performances in the German Bundesliga which earned him a slot in Louis van Gaal's Netherlands side at the World Cup in Qatar. And football transfer guru Fabrizio Romano claims that Frimpong is one of Manchester United's top targets when the winter window opens as the Red Devils look for competition to challenge Diogo Dalot in the right-back role, with Aaron Wan-Bissaka surplus to requirements under manager Erik ten Hag.
European champions Real Madrid are also credited with an interest. The Dutchman was sold to Leverkusen for just under £10million but now his price tag is believed to have risen to around £21m and with his stock on the rise having made an appearance at international football's top stage, Celtic could benefit from any sale as they have a sizeable sell-on fee included, similar to one when Kieran Tierney swapped the Scottish Premiership for Arsenal in summer 2019. However Leverkusen director Simon Rolfes insists his side are 'very relaxed' over Frimpong's future with the 22-year-old's contract running until 2025.
