Jeremie Frimpong has completed his medical in England as Liverpool moves closer to finalizing his transfer from Bayer Leverkusen this summer. The 24-year-old Dutch player, who can play both as a right-back and winger, flew to England on Sunday to complete the medical process.
Frimpong has a release clause of €35 million (£29.5 million), which Liverpool has agreed to meet. He informed Bayer Leverkusen of his desire to leave the Bundesliga club, and the transfer is expected to be completed soon. Liverpool’s manager Arne Slot values Frimpong highly for his versatility and skill.
Last season, Frimpong was an important part of the Bayer Leverkusen squad that won the German domestic double, securing both the Bundesliga title and the DFB-Pokal trophy. His performance helped the club achieve a historic success, attracting interest from top clubs across Europe.
Liverpool sees Frimpong as a key addition to strengthen their defense and provide more options on the wing. The club aims to increase squad depth ahead of the new Premier League season. With the medical now done, Liverpool is expected to announce the signing officially in the coming days.
The transfer highlights Liverpool’s ongoing efforts to bring talented players from top European leagues. News updates and further details will be available on newsherder.com as the situation develops.
