Manchester United are now in talks with the agent of Bayer Leverkusen fullback Jeremie Frimpong.
Jeffrey Lemmert has held "positive" talks over a move to Old Trafford with United representatives, says Sky Deutschland.
And it's also emerged Frimpong favours the move.
It would be a homecoming for the Holland international, who is a former Manchester City youth teamer.
Earlier this month Frimpong told Relevo: "I would like to win titles, I love that feeling. I did it with Celtic… and I want more. I want to play consistently well. Now I just want to help Bayer Leverkusen."
