Liverpool Preparing for Life Without Trent Alexander-Arnold
Liverpool are bracing for the potential departure of Trent Alexander-Arnold, who is set to become a free agent at the end of the season.
Despite being a lifelong Liverpool fan, the right-back has been strongly linked with a move to Real Madrid, where he could reunite with his childhood friend Jude Bellingham.
Alongside Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk, Alexander-Arnold’s contract remains unresolved, and behind the scenes, it appears Liverpool have come to terms with the fact that he could be on his way out. As a result, the club has already started exploring potential replacements.
Liverpool Eyeing Jeremie Frimpong as Replacement
According to BILD, Liverpool are considering a move for Bayer Leverkusen’s Jeremie Frimpong. The Dutch full-back has caught the attention of several top clubs, and a bid of around 34 million pounds or 40 million euros could be enough to secure his signature.
Frimpong’s attacking style makes him a natural successor to Alexander-Arnold. He thrives in an advanced role despite being a defender, making him a logical fit for Liverpool’s system.
The Clock is Ticking on Alexander-Arnold’s Future
Although Liverpool are still trying to keep Alexander-Arnold at Anfield, they are preparing for the worst in case he decides to move on.
Frimpong was a key figure in Bayer Leverkusen’s Bundesliga success last season, racking up 14 goals and 10 assists in 47 appearances. This season, he has continued his impressive form, contributing four goals and 11 assists.
Finding a worthy replacement for Alexander-Arnold will be a huge challenge, but Liverpool may have left it too late to secure him on a new deal.
Now, they have no choice but to look for alternatives in the market, and Frimpong appears to be at the top of their list.
