We were joined by Stefan Bienkowski of Transfermarkt, who highlighted that with the summer comes speculation and the Reds have been linked with some of Europe’s standout talents, Jeremie Frimpong and Florian Wirtz.

Frimpong is an exciting wing-back.



However, his defensive reliability remains a concern.

“HE ONLY HAS ONE SETTING” – SCOTTISH FOOTBALL EXPERT ON LIVERPOOL LINKED JEREMIE FRIMPONG

Stefan said: “He is certainly a special player, in certain aspects a world-class player, but it all comes down to the system.

Trent had his head up looking for the through ball, and Frimpong is the opposite.

He has his head down, dribbling and taking on players.”

Despite comparisons to Trent, Frimpong is a very different profile.

Alonso used a back three that allowed him to bomb forward, leaving the defence exposed- something manager Arne Slot could replicate if Liverpool added a more positionally disciplined holding midfielder who could drop into the back line when needed.

“Maybe Slot’s idea is to bring in a more conventional number 6 who will drop back, becoming a back three and therefore Frimpong can move forward a little.”

The deal could represent smart business if viewed as a dual-purpose signing.

“He can fill in for Conor Bradley and play that fullback position, but equally can fill in for Mohamed Salah.

He is not as clinical as Salah and by no means a long-term replacement, but he’s extremely useful and can become very valuable.”

While Frimpong brings chaos, Florian Wirtz offers composure and control.
