Jeremie Frimpong has completed his £ 29.5 million move to Liverpool.
The Bayer Leverkusen-Rechtsback, 24, got into the United Kingdom on Tuesday after the Premier League champions have met his release clause, which they will pay in three annual terms.
Liverpool has landed £ 10 million from Real Madrid to have Trent Alexander -Arnold moved to Spain on time for the Club World Cup – where this fee effectively pays the first episode in the deal for Frimpong.
The 12-CAP Dutch International will be the first summer signing of Arne Slot, with his bargain costs a major role in the club's decision to pursue him.
His arrival coincides with the departure of long-term full-back Trent Alexander-Arnold, who joins Real Madrid.
Frimpong, who has written a “long -term deal”, will compete with talent Conor Bradley, 21, native talent Conor, 21, for the right -wing place.
When he spoke when signing the Reds, Frimpong said: “It was fairly simple. Liverpool came and said they were interested, and for me it was clearly a no-brainer.
“For me it was like:” Whatever you do, just get this done, ” [speaking to] My agents: “Just get this done.”

“Liverpool fans, I'm going to give my everything, my energy, my working speed and hopefully we can win together, we celebrate together, get everything together.
“I am just excited to be here. Thank you for accepting me and I will not disappoint you and I will give you the energy you want.”
Frimpong was an important part of the Leverkusen team that Bayern Munich brought on the Bundesliga title of 2023/24 from 25 league matches.
After this season he finished second behind Bayern, his Leverkusen also ready to lose Florian Wirtz, which she could pack £ 125 million.
Liverpool was tipped to also get Wirtz, but Real Madrid and Bayern went into the race for the 22-year-old attacking midfielder.
Signing Frimpong contributes to the number of home -grown players in the books of the Reds.
He would qualify as Inlands if he spent nine years in England when he was in the books of Manchester City from the age of nine.
While Liverpool will miss the attacking bravery of Alexander-Arnold, Frimpong scored five goals this season and can work as a right-wing winger.
Frimpong recently revealed that he came to Liverpool as a child.
The head-new boy said to Rising Ballers: “I actually chose Liverpool first.
“I started signing for them, but then driving wasn't something. My family didn't drive and it was far.
“Man City was locally, so it was more logical. It was 15 minutes on the bus.”
After he did not get to Pep Guardiola's Radar in City, Frimpong came to Celtic and won the Interior Scottish Treble during his first season north of the border.
Liverpool is also interested in Bournemouth left back Milos Kerkez, which is appreciated at £ 45 million.
