Liverpool They are reportedly planning to swoop in to sign Bayer Leverkusen star Jeremie Frimpong, according to transfer journalist Ekrem Konur.

Furthermore, the Dutchman led his team to win the Bundesliga title and the DFB Pokal trophy. Leverkusen also reached the final of the european league before losing to Atalanta in the final.
Now, Frimpong has failed to replicate last season's form so far, yet he remains on the radar of some big clubs in Europe.

Frimpong to Liverpool
However, city of manchester, real Madrid and Barcelona They are also in this race, so it will not be easy for the Merseyside club to close a possible deal for him.

“Bayer Leverkusen's Dutch right-back Jeremie Frimpong is on the giants' radar! “Liverpool, Manchester City, Real Madrid and Barcelona want to sign Frimpong.”
Frimpong has a contract until 2028 with Leverkusen and has a 33 million pounds termination clause in your current contract.
Trent Alexander-Arnold and Conor Bradley are the two options that Arne Slot currently has at his disposal for the right-back position. Alexander-Arnold has been first choice over the years, but his future at Anfield is currently at stake as his current contract is set to expire at the end of this season.
Real Madrid has been widely mentioned as a potential destination for him if he were to leave the club next summer. Bradley has recently shown that he has the qualities to become first choice, but if Alexander-Arnold leaves the club, a new defender will be needed to replace him.
Frimpong is a talented player, but he does not play as a right-back in a back four, but is more comfortable in the full-back position. However, it will be interesting to see if the Merseyside club choose to adopt a concrete strategy to sign him to strengthen their defence.
