### Barcelona’s Pursuit of Jeremy Frimpong: A Challenge from Real Madrid
Barcelona’s coach is looking to bolster his squad for the upcoming seasons and has identified a potential target who may also catch Real Madrid’s attention in the next transfer window.
Currently, Barcelona is facing significant financial challenges that hinder their ability to make major signings, contrasting sharply with Real Madrid, which is enjoying a successful period both on and off the pitch.
According to Spanish outlet Defensa Central, Hansi Flick is interested in acquiring Jeremy Frimpong, the right-back from Bayer Leverkusen. While Frimpong is highly regarded in Madrid, concerns have been raised about his defensive skills, as he typically plays as a wing-back and often focuses on attacking, making him less experienced in a traditional four-man defensive setup.
The report also indicates that Frimpong has expressed a desire to join Real Madrid, hoping to play alongside stars like Vinicius and Mbappé in one of the most exciting projects in football today. This news poses a significant setback for Barcelona, as they recognize the appeal of Real Madrid’s project to prospective players.
Despite this, Barcelona remains determined to persuade Frimpong to sign with them, knowing that Real Madrid is also interested in monitoring Alexander-Arnold’s situation.
Having Vinicius and Mbappé together would provide Real Madrid with exceptional attacking power, and while their synergy still needs to be developed through practice and additional matches, any player would be eager to partner with them. It’s understandable that Frimpong aspires to join Real Madrid, particularly given his longstanding admiration for the club.
