Florian WIrtz and Jeremie Frimpong holidayed together and will play alongside each other at Liverpool next season

Florian Wirtz says he can't wait to get started at Liverpool with Jeremie Frimpong after both moved from Bayer Leverkusen this summer.

Frimpong officially became a Reds player at the beginning of the month after his £29m release clause was triggered in May.

The Netherlands international will add an injection of pace and versatility to the Premier League champions' squad next season, particularly on the right side.

Wirtz, meanwhile, joined officially on Friday after a club-record deal worth £116m was struck with Leverkusen after a few weeks of intense negotiations involving sporting director Richard Hughes and his counterpart Simon Rolfes.

The Reds new boys are close away from the pitch and were pictured on holiday together last week, prior to Wirtz and his family touching down for the attacking midfielder's Merseyside medical.

And the Germany international has revealed how he is looking forward to beginning a new chapter alongside the versatile Dutchman at Anfield.

"I played, I think, three or four years with him," Wirtz told Liverpoolfc.com.

"He's a really good player, a really good person, a really funny guy.

I'm really looking forward to standing on the pitch with him again.

"He was my neighbour in the changing room, he sat directly next to me and I had to speak English with him.

After I finished my school, I didn't speak really good English but he was teaching me a lot and making me speak in more English and better English."

Wirtz added: "I'm really excited to have a new adventure in front of me.

I'm really looking forward to playing my first game."

Both Wirtz and Frimpong will be part of pre-season training on July 7 and are expected to make their unofficial debuts six days later in a friendly with Preston North End.
