The course for the future is being set at FC Bayern. The club could find what they are looking for with their escaped competitor from Leverkusen. In addition to head coach Xabi Alonso, Bayern apparently also have two Werkself players in their sights.
As “Sky” reports, FC Bayern Leverkusen defender Jeremie Frimpong is “closely watching”. The 23-year-old could “under certain circumstances” become a hot candidate for the coming season at FCB.
Due to his strong performances on the Bayer wing, Frimpong “moved up in Bayern’s field of vision,” the report says.
In the event of a possible deal, the Munich team would have to pay a transfer fee of 40 to 45 million euros for the Dutchman due to an exit clause. The full-back could become a hot candidate for Bayern, especially if FCB were to hire a coach who relies on a three-man chain and uses Frimpong as a rail player. Like Xabi Alonso in Leverkusen right now.
Alonso, Frimpong, Tah – will Bayern bring in a Leverkusen trio?
The coach is also considered the ideal solution for the record champions. There is said to have already been initial contact and discussions. According to “Sky”, the trend is pointing towards Bavaria.
In addition to Alonso and Frimpong, according to the report, Leverkusen defense chief Jonathan Tah is also on the list of new sports director Max Eberl, reports Sky.
The broadcaster also revealed other transfer candidates for the club. With Theo Hernandez (AC Milan) and Miguel Gutierrez (FC Girona), there are other full-backs on Bayern’s list. Antonio Silva (Benfica) could be an issue in defense.
Eberl is also considered a fan of Manu Koné, whom he once signed for Borussia Mönchengladbach. In midfield, FCB has Martin Zubimendi (Real Sociedad), João Neves (Benfica) and Assan Ouédraogo (17/Schalke 04) in mind.
