Celtic due profit from any potential Frimpong sale
Latest from Sky Sports News' Anthony Joseph:
Celtic would be due 30 per cent of the profit from any potential sale of Jeremie Frimpong. If his release of £29.5m (35m euros) is met, the Hoops will be due around £5.5m from their sell-on clause.
The Netherlands international was a key member of the Leverkusen team that won the German domestic double last season.
Since joining Leverkusen in January 2021, the ex-Manchester City youth player has scored 30 goals and provided 44 assists in 190 games for the club in all competitions.
Leverkusen signed Frimpong from Celtic in a deal worth up to £11.5m in January 2021.
He moved from Manchester City's academy to Celtic for £300,000 in September 2019.
Liverpool right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold announced last week he will leave the club when his contract expires on June 30.
Conor Bradley, 21, is ending the season as Liverpool's first-choice right-back as they plan for the future without Alexander-Arnold.
