Diogo Dalot has been excelling this season under the guidance of Erik ten Hag.
The Portuguese was superb in Manchester United’s last outing vs West Ham and prevent a number of good chances late in the game.
However, there is no real decent options to cover Dalot at present. Aaron Wan-Bissaka was signed from Crystal Palace for £50m, but he has proven he lacks any real talent in the final third and his defensive abilities have also declined.
So, it makes sense for United to be targeting a new right-back and one player they are looking at is Jeremie Frimpong.
Frimpong moved to current club Bayer Leverkusen after starting his professional career at Celtic. The youngster came through the academy at Manchester City but never made a senior appearance.
Frimpong is already a key player in the Leverkusen side, and has even managed five goals in eleven league games from right-back this season.
“Many clubs are following Frimpong, he’s appreciated by Man United but Bayer Leverkusen will try to keep him until the end of the season, not an easy one. Behind the scenes, ten Hag and Man Utd tried to find a solution for Wan-Bissaka in order to sign Sergino Dest on loan; but now it’s still early to mention the full list, December could be the right time to decide,” said Romano.
