Jeremie Frimpong is the perfect example of Celtic's player trading model of buy low, develop, then sell high and Neil Lennon hopes he gets his much touted big move this summer.
The Leverkusen right back is wanted with Manchester United and Arsenal fighting it out for his signature. The Bundesliga outfit have slapped a £35million price tag on 22-year-old's head, which could net the Hoops a windfall of £10m if a deal goes through, thanks to a sell-on clause inserted in the agreement that took him from Glasgow to Germany for £11m back in 2021.
Not a bad return for an initial £300,000 outlay on a Manchester City academy player. It's the exact model that the Premiership champions try and replicate with the majority of their transfers, ensuring not only a healthy profit at point of sale, but banking more cash further down the line if the big guns come calling with the really big money.
