Real Madrid are currently the favorites to sign Dutch right-back Jeremie Frimpong with Manchester United and Chelsea interested.
Frimpong has been in impressive form for Bayer Leverkusen since joining the German club from Celtic.
Despite not making an appearance with his country, Frimpong is currently at the World Cup in Qatar with the Netherlands.
Fabrizio Romano recently confirmed to CaughtOffside via his Substack column that Manchester United were currently scouting Frimpong, with Simon Phillips claiming that the Leverkusen defender was on his current roster.

Now, a new report from Central Defense claims that Real Madrid are leading the race to sign Frimpong. With Dani Carvajal now 30, Madrid could be plotting a move for Frimpong as a long-term replacement.
Frimpong has scored five times and provided three assists in all competitions this season, an impressive comeback for a young right-back.
It won’t be easy to steer Frimpong away from Leverkusen, especially during the January transfer window, but it may be difficult for Frimpong to turn away some of the biggest clubs in Europe.
