Liverpool manager on Frimpong transfer progress

It was recently reported that Liverpool’s new manager Arne Slot is considering bringing in a new player to replace Alexander-Arnold. Arnold could leave the team this summer to join Real Madrid.

On the topic, Slot said in an interview, “It’s not official yet, so I don’t think it’s particularly appropriate to talk about transfers at this time.” Although he didn’t directly confirm it, many believe that Liverpool are in talks with Leverkusen to sign their playmaker Jeremie Frimpong. If the deal goes through, the transfer could cost Liverpool around £35 million.

Aside from transfer news, let’s take a look at a recent match. In a Premier League match that ended early this morning, Liverpool, who have already won the title early, hosted Brighton. It was a great game, with both sides going back and forth, and in the end Liverpool lost 2-3.

On the performance of the game, Slaughter said, “It was a very close game. At one point in the second half we were leading 2-1 and I think we had a better chance of scoring a third goal to extend the lead. But in terms of the result, Brighton took their chances and they turned the game around in the end.”

He also mentioned, “Despite the loss, I was quite happy to see Javi Elliott score a goal and give an assist. Sobosloe also played well and scored a nice goal. Chiesa had a couple of good performances as well, and those are all things to recognize.”

On the other side, Brighton’s manager Fabian Hürzeler praised his team in a post-match interview. He said, “I always believe in our team and we showed a lot of courage in this game. At times we needed to play defense, but everyone stayed focused and played hard.”

“Instead of giving up when we were down, we worked harder to get the ball and create chances. That’s the kind of attitude I want to see in a game. I’m confident we will continue to move toward our goal.”
