Bayer Leverkusen’s star Jeremie Frimpong has been the subject of intense transfer speculation following the club’s triumph in the 2023/24 Bundesliga.

Premier League giants like Liverpool, Manchester City, and Spanish powerhouse Real Madrid have all been rumored to be keen on securing the talented fullback’s signature.

However, Frimpong has dismissed these rumors, reaffirming his commitment to Leverkusen. “I’m 100 percent here in my head just like I always have been since I’ve been here,” Frimpong told Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger.

Frimpong has made it clear that despite the swirling transfer talk, he remains focused on his current goals with Leverkusen. “I kept hearing things about myself that I’m going to go here, there, or there. And I’m still here. These rumors are part of football, so I won’t let them influence me,” he explained.

The Dutch international also shared his aspirations, noting, “As long as I win trophies, I’m happy. I definitely want to win the Champions League. That’s my dream. And then preferably the World Cup.”
