Bayern Munich have joined the race to sign Arsenal and Manchester United target Jeremie Frimpong this summer.
The Netherlands star has been a revelation for Bayer Leverkusen this term, scoring 10 goals and providing 10 assists from the right wing-back role.
His progress has caught the eye of Arsenal and United. The Red Devils have identified him as a replacement for the injury-plagued Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
However, it seems that the duo could face stiff competition from Bayern, who are weighing up an approach for the former Celtic defender.
Thomas Tuchel is expected to step down from his managerial position this summer. The new manager could have different plans in mind.
Bayern are still keeping tabs on the performances of Frimpong and believe he would be a good fit in a 3-4-3 set-up under the next head coach.
Frimpong signed a new long-term deal with Leverkusen last year, but the contract has a relatively low release clause of around €40 million.
