Barcelona is eager to sign a new right-back this summer to provide competition for Jules Kounde in that position.
According to Relevo, one of the players under consideration by the Blaugranas is Bayer Leverkusen’s Jeremie Frimpong. Hansi Flick views strengthening this position as a top priority ahead of the upcoming season, and Frimpong is seen as a key player who can help achieve that goal.
Barcelona believes that Frimpong would be a valuable addition to the squad, offering versatility to rotate with Kounde on the right flank. They also see him as a potential option to fill in for Lamine Yamal in the midfield if necessary.
It’s worth noting that Barcelona is also reportedly interested in Rayo Vallecano’s right-back Andrei Ratiu. Hansi Flick has approved the move, and discussions for the transfer are expected to begin soon.
