Cody Gakpo has claimed his future Liverpool team-mate Jeremie Frimpong is Dutch, English and \u201c a very good player\u201d.<\/p>\n
The new champions have activated the \u00a329.5m buyout clause for the Bayer Leverkusen right-back as a replacement for Trent Alexander-Arnold<\/a>. Frimpong, who can also play on the wing, is a former Manchester City<\/a> trainee who played for Celtic and won the German double last season with Bayer Leverkusen.<\/p>\n The Anfield club already has a strong Dutch contingent with manager Arne Slot<\/a>, captain Virgil van Dijk and Ryan Gravenberch.<\/p>\n Liverpool<\/a> have yet to confirm Frimpong\u2019s signing but Gakpo said: \u201cWe have a lot of Dutch players now in the Premier League<\/a> and I think everybody is doing very well, so yes, hopefully we can continue.<\/p>\n READ MORE: Liverpool forced into late switch before Premier League trophy lift due to concerns<\/a>READ MORE: Liverpool encounter familiar problem as Milos Kerkez race hits late stumbling block<\/a><\/p>\n Could there soon be four at Anfield with Frimpong? “Maybe, I don\u2019t know yet. Maybe you know more than me! But yes, obviously another Dutchman, English as well, but a very good guy. We know him from the national team and a very good player as well so let\u2019s see if he comes or not.\u201d<\/p>\n Liverpool have taken only one point from three games since sealing their 20th league title after the 3-2 defeat at Brighton<\/a>.<\/p>\n But the Reds now have the chance to finish a famous season on a high note by beating FA Cup<\/a> winners Crystal Palace<\/a> at Anfield on Sunday before the trophy presentation and then the parade on Bank Holiday Monday.<\/p>\n \u201cWe will be very motivated to win, I think,\u201d added Gakpo. \u201cEven against Brighton we were very motivated to try and win this game and obviously the last game of the season, at home in front of our own fans we want to win and end on a high with a good feeling, lifting the trophy. That\u2019s hopefully what we will do.<\/p>\n \u201cI think the people around here explained to us how the trophy parade was before and it was crazy, let me say it like that, so we are very curious to see what will happen.\u201d<\/p>\n Join our new WhatsApp community<\/a> and receive your daily dose of Mirror Football content.
