🚨 Frimpong Couldn’t Hide His Smile Over Liverpool Transfer News 😄
Liverpool full-back Jeremie Frimpong was visibly pleased when he heard about one of the club’s biggest signings of last summer — his former Bayer Leverkusen teammate Florian Wirtz arriving at Anfield.
The Dutch defender, who joined the Reds after Liverpool activated his £29.5 million release clause, reacted warmly to news of Wirtz’s move to Merseyside — a deal that saw the German midfielder arrive in a separate transfer reported to be worth around £100 million (excluding add-ons), a fee labeled “insane” by some observers.
In a moment shared by the Liverpool Echo’s Paul Gorst on X, Frimpong explained that the thought of lining up alongside Wirtz again brought an instant smile to his face. The two had previously played together at Leverkusen before both made the switch to English football.
Frimpong’s reaction highlights not just a professional connection, but a personal bond — one that made Wirtz’s move even more meaningful for him.
