Liverpool Eyes Frimpong as Trent Alexander-Arnold Replacement

Liverpool is preparing for Trent Alexander-Arnold departure, with the right-back expected to join Real Madrid as a free agent. Manager Arne Slot has identified Bayer Leverkusen Jeremie Frimpong as a potential replacement. The 24-year-old Dutch full-back, valued at around €40 million, has impressed with three goals and nine assists across all competitions this season.

For the upcoming summer transfer window, Liverpool are preparing for life after Trent Alexander-Arnold, who is expected to leave as a free agent and join Real Madrid. The 26-year-old right-back has been instrumental for Liverpool, making nearly 350 appearances and earning a reputation as one of the best attacking full-backs in football.

To replace him, new manager Arne Slot has identified Bayer Leverkusen’s Jeremie Frimpong as a top target. Frimpong, 24, has impressed with his offensive capabilities, registering three goals and four assists in the Bundesliga this season, along with five assists in the Champions League. Last season, he contributed 14 goals and 10 assists across all competitions.

Manchester City are also in the race for Frimpong, as he was part of their academy before moving to Celtic in 2019. Leverkusen have valued him at around €40 million, while his Estimated Transfer Value (ETV) is €57.2 million, making him a potential bargain for interested clubs.

Like Alexander-Arnold, Frimpong is known for his attacking strengths but faces criticism for his defensive abilities. If Liverpool secure his signing, he could be a like-for-like replacement, bringing a similar offensive threat from the right flank.
