Real Madrid Have €40 Million Ready in Case Alexander-Arnold Renews

At Real Madrid, they are still focused on the arrival of Trent Alexander-Arnold for the next season. The current right-back of Liverpool has not yet renewed with the Anfield side, and the chances of him landing at Bernabéu are high.  However, Florentino Pérez knows that anything can happen until July arrives.

For this very reason, to avoid not having a second option ready, Real Madrid already has another name on their list.

Jeremie Frimpong, Another Option Real Madrid Considers

Real Madrid would have renewed their interest in Jeremie Frimpong, the speedy right-back from Bayer Leverkusen. The injury of Dani Carvajal in October 2024, which will keep him out until the end of the year, has accelerated the club's plans to seek a generational replacement. The 24-year-old Dutch player is on the list of potential reinforcements for Carlo Ancelotti and Florentino Pérez.

Jeremie Frimpong has stood out significantly in the Bundesliga. The wing-back was a key piece in the successful undefeated championship of Bayer Leverkusen in 2024 under the direction of Xabi Alonso. Additionally, this year he is also showing himself as one of the best offensive options for the German team.

How Much Could Jeremie Frimpong Be Worth?

With a release clause of 40M euros, Jeremie Frimpong presents himself as a quite serious option. However, Trent Alexander-Arnold remains the favorite, as he would arrive for free from Liverpool.

According to sources close to the club, Real Madrid already contacted the player's entourage in January 2025, taking advantage of the excellent relationship they maintain with Xabi Alonso.

In recent hours, Fabrizio Romano highlighted on his social media the conditions of Jeremie Frimpong. The Dutchman, as the journalist reports, has options to leave. Additionally, his clause, affordable for many clubs, is a handicap that works against Bayer Leverkusen.

However, the competition is fierce: Manchester City, Liverpool, and Bayern Munich are also keeping an eye on Jeremie Frimpong's future. However, the Dutchman doesn't hide his admiration for Real Madrid and players like Vinícius. Additionally, the footballer would arrive at the white club with options to be a starter, something that will surely attract him as well.
