Liverpool Transfer News: Truth On £100k-A-Week Player’s Saudi Link

Iraola spent heavily in the summer, including a reported £106m on Bradley Barcola and £34.5m on Víctor Muñoz, yet signed no specialist right-back. Conor Bradley has not played all season after knee surgery following his January injury at Arsenal, and Iraola has only described gradual progress.

Liverpool transfer news: Should Liverpool keep Frimpong beyond January? Selling at a low point would cost Liverpool a player contracted until June 2030 while Bradley is still rebuilding his fitness and Muñoz, Araújo and Gomez remain makeshift options; Football Insider reports the club would refuse a January sale anyway.

Frimpong needs 10 consecutive league games after his return to show whether his injuries are a pattern or bad luck. If they are, Liverpool should sell next summer and sign a defensively reliable right-back, because neither his hamstrings nor Bradley’s knee history offer Iraola real long-term security.
