Liverpool’s players and staff weren’t afforded the best night’s sleep in Istanbul ahead of their their Champions League clash with Galatasaray - although Arne Slot wasn’t too bothered by the hostile welcome. Videos have been shared online of Galatasaray fans causing chaos outside the hotel where Liverpool’s players and staff were reportedly staying as they tried to sleep.

Speaking to Amazon Prime Video, Frimpong said ahead of the game: “It’s my first time over here. It’s an opportunity to perform, so I’m happy to see what’s going to happen.” Galatasaray fans set off fireworks outside the Liverpool team hotel (Image: X / @ScoriaHools) Asked about the fireworks, the Dutch international added: “Of course, sometimes it’s like this, but you know, it’s football, it’s part of the game.

Obviously, we come here to win, we don’t want to lose, we want to put out a good performance.” Not everyone was woken up by Galatasaray’s supporters though. “We have many games to play in a few days, there's another big game to play coming up,” Slot explained.
