However, the west London club may have competition for his services given that rival Manchester United is reportedly also interested in the midfielder, according to the same publication.
Reece James and Cesar Azpilicueta are currently available to Chelsea manager Graham Potter for the right-back position.
However, the former has been sidelined due to a knee ailment, whereas the latter is aging. It is not surprising to learn that the Blues are interested in a guy like Frimpong when you take that into account.
What has Simon Phillips stated regarding Chelsea and Jeremie Frimpong?
According to Phillips, who spoke to GIVEMESPORT, Todd Boehly and Clearlake are the new owners of Chelsea, who have continued to scout Frimpong in recent years.
GMS was briefed by the journalist said: “I think it’s a position that Chelsea will address in the summer rather than January, but they are starting to look at targets. Jeremie Frimpong is on there.
“Chelsea have scouted him a few times in recent seasons and they’ve stepped that up again now under the new ownership.”
What would Frimpong bring to Chelsea?
Frimpong is the sort of full-back who loves to attack and can cause havoc in the opponent’s half.
As per Transfermarkt, the 21-year-old has scored five goals in 15 league appearances for Leverkusen this season, which is pretty impressive for a player of his position.
