Jeremie Frimpong once voiced his career ambitions as a teenager, showing why he chose to join Liverpool and how he has become a top player in recent years.

The Reds completed their signing of the wing-back from Bayer Leverkusen last week after activating his £29.5million buyout clause.

The Netherlands international penned a five-year contract with the newly-crowned Premier League champions.



Frimpong became a standout player while playing a pivotal role in Xabi Alonso's Leverkusen team, achieving an unbeaten domestic double in 2023/24 where he scored 14 goals and provided 12 assists in 47 matches.

His move to Anfield marks a return to English football after leaving Manchester City six years ago, having joined the Etihad side at the age of 10 but failed to break into the first team.

Aged only 19, he announced to the world that he wanted to win football's biggest individual and team accolades, a testament to the character Liverpool have added to their ranks.

In a 2019 interview with the Mail, Frimpong boldly stated: “I want to be the best player there is.

I want to win as many trophies as I can.”

With Scottish Premiership and Bundesliga titles already under his belt, helping Liverpool retain their Premier League title and conquering Europe would certainly edge Frimpong closer to his dreams.

The Dutch contingent at Liverpool, which includes Virgil van Dijk, Cody Gakpo and Ryan Gravenberch, is expected to ease Frimpong's transition to life on Merseyside.
