Manchester United will go for Frimpong but Leverkusen star makes Arsenal preference clear

According to sources, although Man Utd manager Erik ten Hag is interested in the player, Frimpong would prefer a move to Arsenal.

The 22-year-old has been strongly linked with a move away from Bundesliga leaders Leverkusen in the summer, when a €40 million release fee in his contract will be activated.

The prospect of picking up the player at a relatively cheap price is one that has enticed both Arsenal and Man Utd to look at the player.

FootballTransfers understands, though, that the stability offered by Arsenal would help them win the race for one of the most exciting young full-backs in world football.

Man Utd, meanwhile, have been searching for a right-back since Ten Hag took command of the club, and while Aaron Wan-Bissaka is presently the incumbent in the position, the former Ajax boss has long been known to want a more attacking alternative in that role.

Frimpong would provide just that and at €40m would be a bargain given his Expected Transfer Value (ETV) sits at €53m, but Arsenal are in the driving seat in this deal.
