Frimpong set for Liverpool medical ahead of summer move from Leverkusen

Jeremie Frimpong, who can play at right-back and as a winger, is highly rated by Liverpool boss Arne Slot and will fly to England on Monday for a medical ahead of joining the Reds this summer.

Liverpool are close to completing a deal to sign Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen, with the player set to fly to the UK for a medical on Monday.

Frimpong, whose release clause stands at €35m (£29.5m), has told Leverkusen he wants to leave the Bundesliga club and the Reds have met his release clause.

Liverpool boss Arne Slot highly rates the right-back, who can also play as a winger.

The Netherlands international was a key member of the Leverkusen team that won the German domestic double last season.

Celtic have a sell-on clause which could be worth about £5m.

Leverkusen signed Frimpong from Celtic in a deal worth up to £11.5m in January 2021.
