Between 35 and 40 millions will be transferred to the BayArena. Due to the release clause in his contract, Leverkusen cannot earn more than that.This move gives Jeremie Frimpong a fresh chance to prove himself in England – his first real opportunity in the Premier League. As a youngster, he arrived at Manchester City, went through their academy, and played in the youth ranks as a teenager, but never made a senior appearance. The Citizens let him go to Celtic for just 380,000 (!?), which in hindsight appears to have been a major oversight.Jeremie Frimpong reveals that he almost joined LFC’s academy before Manchester City as a youngster 👀🤏🏽🗣️ “I chose Liverpool first.

He will be remembered forever as a member of the squad that brought Leverkusen their first-ever Bundesliga title.

Now it’s up to him to fill Trent Alexander-Arnold’s boots and ensure that Liverpool doesn’t feel the loss of the Englishman. The two players have similar profiles – both love to drive forward with the ball and contribute significantly in the attacking half, though they’re known to occasionally lose focus defensively.All in all, Liverpool will be getting a physically strong and offensively potent right-back in Jeremie Frimpong, who will now operate more as a traditional full-back.##NAJAVA_MECA_8931528##
