Liverpool fans have reason to celebrate as the club edges closer to securing its first major signing of the summer. Trusted sources report that Jeremie Frimpong will undergo a medical with Liverpool on Monday, a key step toward completing his move to Anfield.
The 23-year-old Dutch international, who was instrumental in Bayer Leverkusen’s Bundesliga title win under Xabi Alonso, has long been on the radar of Premier League clubs. It now seems Liverpool has won the race. Personal terms were reportedly settled weeks ago, leaving only the medical and official confirmation pending.
Frimpong’s signing would be a bold statement by Liverpool. Renowned for his lightning speed, attacking prowess, and relentless energy, the right wing-back promises to bolster the team’s right side and provide tactical flexibility under new head coach Arne Slot.
Liverpool are said to be activating Frimpong’s release clause, estimated at around £34 million — a bargain for a player who racked up 14 goals and 12 assists last season, earning accolades as one of Europe’s top-performing fullbacks. A former Manchester City academy player, Frimpong’s return to the Premier League marks a significant acquisition.
This transfer highlights the ambition of Liverpool’s new leadership duo, Slot and sporting director Richard Hughes, as they aim to challenge Manchester City and Arsenal at the top of the table.
With Frimpong expected to arrive on Merseyside this weekend and undergo his medical at the AXA Training Centre on Monday, fans are eagerly awaiting his official unveiling.
Liverpool’s summer is off to an electrifying start — and there’s more to come
