Liverpool is on the verge of completing the signing of Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen, with the final stages of the transfer expected to be concluded in the coming hours. The 23-year-old right-back, known for his attacking prowess, is set to join the Reds after his €35m release clause was activated.
Frimpong, who plays as a right-back, has a history with Dutch club Go Ahead Eagles and Borussia Dortmund before moving to Bayer Leverkusen. He is recognised for his pace and ability to support both the defence and the attack.
According to recent reports, the transfer has been backed by Liverpool’s new manager, Arne Slot, amid ongoing developments. The signing comes at a time when the club is also dealing with uncertainty surrounding Trent Alexander-Arnold’s future. Liverpool had been in advanced talks with Frimpong’s representatives before activating his release clause, with according to previous reports, the Reds having been keen on securing his services for several days.
