What will Paris Saint-Germain look like in 2024/2025? One thing is certain: it will be without Kylian Mbappé, who left to defend the colors of Real Madrid and undoubtedly with the Russian goalkeeper Matvey Safonov. But that’s not all. This summer, the Rouge et bleu are targeting several promising young talents such as Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Leny Yoro, Maghnes Akliouche and Antonio Silva. But they are not the only ones.

A.S. assures that PSG would also be very interested in Jérémie Frimpong. Aged 23, the Amsterdam native was one of the pillars of the Bayer Leverkusen prestige vintage of this 2023/2024 season. Present at the club since January 2021, Frimpong has scored 14 goals and provided 12 assists in 47 matches in all competitions. Linked to Bayer until 2028, the Batavian, who will obviously be at Euro 2024, is one of the players strongly announced on the departure.

More of a winger than a full-back

Announced in the sights of several European big names such as Real Madrid, Arsenal, Manchester City and Bayern Munich, Frimpong would have a sale clause of €40 million. Information which has, however, never been confirmed by Bayer. Recruiting Frimpong for the right-back position would look great and would impose strong competition on Achraf Hakimi. However, if the Batavian shone with Bayer, it was in a very specific context, as our colleague from Fussball transfers Tristan Bernert.

“He is very fast, especially in his first supports. Very offensive. In Alonso’s system, he was more of a winger than a right defender. He has problems with physically strong players who can match his speed. In attack and defense. For me he is a player who must play in a system with 3 defenders and two wingers. He is too weak defensively to play in a four-man defense. In 1v1, he’s a monster except against big, fast defenders. » You will have understood, if PSG’s interest is confirmed, it will either be necessary to change system or use him as a winger.
