Should Frimpong make the move to Old Trafford, he would be competing with Diogo Dalot and Aaron Wan-Bissaka for a place in Ten Hag's starting line-up.
The Red Devils are expected to welcome several players in the summer transfer window.
Ten Hag is understood to be prioritising a new striker with Tottenham star Harry Kane at the top of his transfer wishlist.
Victor Osimhen and Goncalo Ramos have also emerged as potential targets, but both players are expected to cost over £100million.
