Liverpool is taking significant steps towards signing Dutch star Jeremy Frimpong, the right-back of Bayer Leverkusen, during the summer transfer window, as part of the team's plan to compensate for the anticipated departure of Alexander Arnold at the end of the current season.

According to what was revealed by 'The Athletic' network, Liverpool has made substantial progress in negotiations with the player, having already agreed on the personal terms of the contract, with Frimpong's representatives expressing optimism about completing the deal in the coming days.

In the same context, reports indicate that the Reds' management is currently preparing to activate the release clause in Frimpong's contract with Leverkusen, which is valued at 35 million euros, in order to expedite the official signing process, as the club aims to finalize the deal before the start of the new season's preparation period.

Frimpong, who is 24 years old, is considered one of the standout stars in the Bundesliga last season, playing a pivotal role in Leverkusen's double win of the league and cup, in addition to reaching the final of the UEFA Europa League. He is known for his high offensive capabilities and great speed, making him an ideal option to fill the right-back position in Liverpool's lineup.

Meanwhile, a report from the German newspaper 'Kicker' indicated that the deal is almost finalized, with only a few minor details related to the contract remaining before the official announcement.
