It has long been an open secret that Jeremie Frimpong is set to join Liverpool this summer, and Reds supporters are now eagerly awaiting the official announcement of the transfer.
Fabrizio Romano gave his trademark “here we go” signal nine days ago, typically a sign that the deal is all but finalized. The Bayer Leverkusen right-back has already completed his medical, and Sky Sports confirmed on Tuesday that he has arrived on Merseyside to wrap up the move.
When might Liverpool announce Frimpong’s arrival?
According to Lewis Steele, a Merseyside-based football journalist for the Daily Mail, Liverpool could unveil the signing once the summer transfer window opens on Sunday. The fee is expected to be around £30 million.
In more positive news for Liverpool fans, reports suggest the club is also making progress toward signing Florian Wirtz and Milos Kerkez, with hopes of finalizing those deals by mid-June. Sporting director Richard Hughes appears to be closing in on a trio of significant signings within just three weeks of the 2024/25 Premier League season ending.
Liverpool Waste No Time Securing Frimpong Signing
If Liverpool announces Jeremie Frimpong’s arrival just as the transfer window opens, it would send a strong message from the reigning Premier League champions—they’re not content to sit back after last season’s dominant campaign.
Finalizing three signings by mid-June would be a major accomplishment for the club, showcasing smart planning and giving them ample time to continue strengthening the squad over the remainder of the summer.
Frimpong’s addition represents a smooth transition at right-back following Trent Alexander-Arnold’s departure. His arrival will provide new head coach Arne Slot with two top-tier options on the right flank, with Conor Bradley also in the mix.
If the 24-year-old’s move is confirmed soon, he’ll benefit from participating in the full pre-season with his new team and have time after the upcoming international break to settle into life in England.
After leaving it late to do business last summer, Liverpool’s early activity this year is a welcome change—highlighting a much more proactive and efficient approach to the transfer market.
