In a major development on Sunday evening, reliable transfer expert Fabrizio Romano confirmed that Jeremie Frimpong has completed the first part of his medical ahead of his highly anticipated move to Liverpool. The Dutch right-back, who has been a standout performer for Bayer Leverkusen, is now one step closer to becoming the first signing under Liverpool’s new manager, Arne Slot.
The 24-year-old defender is expected to sign a long-term contract with the club that will keep him at Anfield until June 2030. According to sources close to the deal, all parties have agreed on the terms, and the official signing and announcement are expected within days. Romano ended his update with his famous tagline “Here we go,” indicating that the deal is as good as done.
Frimpong’s move to Merseyside comes after a sensational season with Bayer Leverkusen, where he played a pivotal role in their unbeaten Bundesliga title campaign. Known for his explosive pace, attacking runs, and relentless energy, Frimpong contributed 14 goals and 10 assists last season—a staggering return for a full-back. His versatility and ability to operate in both defensive and advanced wide positions make him an ideal addition for Liverpool’s evolving tactical setup.
New Liverpool boss Arne Slot, who is expected to adopt a high-intensity, possession-based style of play, will be delighted to welcome Frimpong, whose playing style mirrors the modern full-back role. His arrival also raises questions about the future of Trent Alexander-Arnold, who has been linked with a potential move to Real Madrid.
Despite this major signing, Liverpool are not done in the transfer market. Fabrizio Romano added that the club is actively looking to bring in a left-back before the end of the summer transfer window. With Andrew Robertson facing increasing injury issues and Kostas Tsimikas struggling for consistency, a new addition on the left side of defense could provide balance and depth for the upcoming campaign.
Frimpong’s official unveiling as a Liverpool player is expected soon, and fans are already buzzing with excitement over what he will bring to the team. With his speed, technical ability, and goal contributions, he is set to become a key figure at Anfield for years to come.
