Jeremie Frimpong joins Liverpool as cut-price deal agreed
Liverpool confirm signing to replace Trent Alexander-Arnold
- Jeremie Frimpong is set to join Liverpool after they triggered his £29.5m release clause with Bayer Leverkusen and agreed to personal terms.
- Frimpong's arrival coincides with Trent Alexander-Arnold's departure to Real Madrid for €10m.
- Liverpool views Frimpong, a Netherlands international, as a versatile player for any position on the right flank, not just a like-for-like replacement.
- Liverpool will pay for Frimpong in three annual installments and are also in talks with Leverkusen for Florian Wirtz, with an offer rising to €130m.
- Frimpong, who qualifies as a homegrown player, has been on Liverpool's radar for 15 years and scored 28 goals in his last three seasons at Leverkusen, helping them win an unbeaten double last season.
