Liverpool have signed Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen, the Premier League champions confirmed on Friday.
The Netherlands international joined Liverpool on a €35 million deal.
The deal was announced hours after Trent Alexander-Arnold’s early exit to Real Madrid was confirmed.
“It went quite easy,” Frimpong said of the talks. “Liverpool came and said they had interest, and obviously for me it was a no-brainer.
“For me, it was like, ‘Whatever you guys do, just get this done,’ [speaking to] my agents: ‘Just get this done.’
“Liverpool fans, I’m going to give my all, my energy, my work-rate and hopefully we can win together, we celebrate together, get everything together.
“I’m just excited to be here. Thank you guys for accepting me and I won’t let you guys down and I’ll give you the energy that you guys want.”
