He’s so rapid, yeah.” Asked if the Dutchman is the quickest player at Liverpool, he responded: “Yeah, I would say yeah. I said him and [Dominik] Szoboszlai when the pitch opens up, he has a long stride.”When is Jeremie Frimpong back from injuryLiverpool signed Frimpong to replace Trent Alexander-Arnold following the latter’s move to Real Madrid.However, the right-back has suffered from injuries since he swapped the Bundesliga for the English top-flight.So far, the 24-year-old has only played 84 minutes of Premier League football, with Conor Bradley impressing in his absence.However, Frimpong is closing in on a return and should be available at some point after the November international break, though he won’t be fully fit to take on Nottingham Forest on November 22.Slot gave a Liverpool team news update before Manchester City, saying: “Alisson for sure.
And I expect Jeremie back after the international break as well because we play from November until March!“But I don’t expect Jeremie to be fully fit for Forest. But with Alisson, we expect this, yes.”
