JEREMIE FRIMPONG is reportedly “open” to a move to Manchester United in the January transfer window.
The Bayer Leverkusen right-back is currently at the World Cup in Qatar with the Netherlands but is yet to play a minute in the tournament.
The Red Devils’ interest in the Dutchman has been previously reported but it is expected that talks could accelerate after the World Cup, according to Sky Germany.
The 21-year-old has a contract with the Bundesliga side lasting until 2025.
However, Leverkusen have been looking at replacements for the full back, with West Ham’s Vladimir Coufal rumoured to be one £6million target.
Frimpong has been in great form this season on the flank and has scored five goals and three assists in 21 appearances for his club this campaign.

Red Devils manager Erik ten Hag will be looking for improvement on his right side.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka has failed to impress the new manager and has only made on appearance this season.
The new manager has preferred Diogo Dalot over the Englishman, but the Portuguese defender is out of contract at the end of the season.
The 23-year-old has made 20 appearances in all competitions this season, scoring one and assisting two goals.

Frimpong is able to play as a right winger as well as a right back, so could provide the Red Devils with some versatility on the flank.
Prior to his move to Germany in 2021, Frimpong enjoyed a stint with Scottish giants Celtic.
During his time in Scotland he won the Scottish Premiership, the Scottish Cup and the Scottish League Cup.
