Frimpong 'very open' to Barcelona move; Liverpool would sell for €35m

📰 A Spanish report claims Barcelona are monitoring Liverpool's Jeremie Frimpong and that the player is open to a move. 📌 Key points 🔵 Barcelona reportedly have Frimpong on their right-back shortlist. 🙋 Frimpong is said to be very open to joining Barça. 💶 Liverpool could sanction a sale for around €35m. 🔄 Iraola has preferred Ronald Araújo at right-back. ⚠️ The story comes from a single journalist, so reliability is low. 📝 What happened 🗞️ Spanish journalist Juan Jesús said on social media that Barcelona sporting director Deco has Frimpong on a shortlist of right-back options. According to CaughtOffside, Tottenham's Pedro Porro is on the same list. 😓 Jesús claimed Frimpong is going through a nightmare at Liverpool, unable to adapt to England, and does not feature in Iraola's plans. He added that the player is very open to joining Barça. 🔄 Frimpong joined from Bayer Leverkusen for £29.5m in 2025 and has suffered a series of hamstring problems. This season Ronald Araújo, on loan from Barcelona, has taken the right-back spot. 🔭 Anfield Watch suggests Frimpong could drop to third choice once Conor Bradley returns from his knee injury. Liverpool are also reported to be tracking Brentford's Michael Kayode as a right-back option. 📊 By the numbers • Reported fee: around €35m • Fee paid in 2025: £29.5m • League starts this season: 2 (CaughtOffside) • Champions League minutes: 31 (CaughtOffside) 🔭 Why it matters Frimpong shone as a wing-back under Xabi Alonso at Leverkusen, yet little more than a year after arriving at Anfield he is the subject of exit talk. Whether anything happens in the January window remains to be seen. Liverpool host Manchester City on 11 October, then travel to LASK in the Champions League on the 14th.
