There are fears that may mean the writing is on the wall when it comes to Trent Alexander-Arnold - although Real Madrid apparently holds an interest in Frimpong as well.

He isn't Alexander-Arnold, but if Liverpool finds itself looking for a replacement, it will need to accept that a like-for-like transfer is impossible.



What Frimpong does offer is a textbook example of a hyper-attacking full-back.

Slot would need to adjust to the loss of playmaking passes from right-back, but he would be compensated with plenty more lung-busting runs into dangerous areas.

But it's been suggested that Liverpool may need to beat off interest from Real Madrid

The irony of that will not be lost on anyone, given that the Reds would only be in the market for a right-back in the event that Los Blancos successfully poached Alexander-Arnold.

It would be the most Real Madrid move ever to sign both of them, leaving the Reds in no-man's-land

But it will be some comfort to Liverpool that Frimpong is only on the Spanish giant's agenda in the event that Alexander-Arnold does not sign, according to TeamTalk
