Liverpool has confirmed the signing of Jeremie Frimpong for around £30million, paid over three instalments. The Netherlands international, 24, joins the Reds on a fee of €35million in a five-year deal,

Frimpong arrives on Merseyside as the long-term replacement for Trent Alexander-Arnold, Liverpool’s stalwart on the right side of defence who is leaving the club after a 21-year association in order to join Real Madrid, who have completed a £10m deal for the out-of-contract England international to join early ahead of the Club World Cup.

Liverpool have signed Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen, the Premier League champions confirmed on Friday.

Jeremie Frimpong has promised Liverpool fans he is ‘going to give his all’ after the club announced a £29.5m deal for the Bayer Leverkusen star. The Reds have officially completed the signing of the highly-rated 24-year-old wing-back from the Bundesliga side for €35m on a five-year contract.

In a wide-ranging interview with The Athletic, Liverpool FC defender Ibrahima Konaté talks a variety of subjects, including the transition from Klopp to Slot, the parade, watching PSG vs Inter at the French National Team camp, and uh... pushing international teammate Ousmanne Dembele for the Ballon D’or amongst other things.

Slot was a popular figure when he was at the helm of Feyenoord. The Dutchman was loved by his players there, and he delivered an Eredivisie title during his time at De Kuip in Rotterdam. Frimpong spoke to Slot before joining Liverpool, and the manager’s words convinced him to make a move to Anfield.

The Premier League is rarely won in June, but it can be lost. Liverpool’s activity this early in the window sets a tone. While Guardiola’s side remains formidable, and Arsenal have the foundations of a title challenger, Liverpool’s blend of settled stars and shrewd new faces might just tilt the odds in their favour again.

Holland coach Ronald Koeman admits he doesn't regard Jeremie Frimpong as a natural right-back. Frimpong has left Bayer Leverkusen for Liverpool primarily to replace England right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold, who has signed for Real Madrid.

Liverpool have quickly wrapped up their first signing of the summer transfer window by bringing Jeremie Frimpong to Anfield. With Trent Alexander-Arnold set to leave Liverpool early so he can join Real Madrid in June, the Reds have quickly moved for his replacement.

Jeremie Frimpong has revealed Virgil van Dijk offered him an insight into the "expectations" that come with playing for Liverpool before he completed his £29.5m move to Anfield.

Despite his departure, the Reds still have the best odds to win both the Premier League (11/5) and Champions League (11/2). But should they? With Jeremie Frimpong already in the fold and the potential acquisitions of Florian Wirtz and Milos Kerkez on the horizon,
