Following a dominant victory in the 2024/25 Premier League season, Arne Slot’s Liverpool is poised to acquire Jeremie Frimpong this summer in light of Trent Alexander-Arnold’s impending departure.
The 24-year-old Dutch player is expected to don an unconventional jersey number at Anfield.
Alexander-Arnold’s recent announcement regarding his exit from the club he has served for many years has sparked significant criticism, prompting Slot, recognized as one of the premier managers in global football, and his team to seek a replacement right-back.
It’s been a superb season for the Reds, despite Champions League disappointment, and the club’s higher-ups will be looking to improve on the Dutch tactician’s first season on Merseyside.
And snaring Frimpong’s services will certainly do that.
Liverpool, as things stand, have just two outings left of the 2024/25 campaign – travelling to Brighton & Hove Albion’s stomping ground on Monday evening before hosting Crystal Palace on the last day as they bow out as champions.
