Speaking in his first interview, Jeremie Frimpong shared his excitement and stressed his readiness to work hard to give his everything to the club.
“It went quite easy. Liverpool came and said they had interest, and obviously for me it was a no-brainer. For me, it was like, ‘Whatever you guys do, just get this done’, [speaking to] my agents: ‘Just get this done.’
“Liverpool fans, I’m going to give my all, my energy, my work-rate and hopefully we can win together, we celebrate together, get everything together.
“I’m just excited to be here. Thank you guys for accepting me and I won’t let you guys down and I’ll give you the energy that you guys want,” Frimpong said as quoted on Liverpoolfc.com.
At Liverpool, Jeremie Frimpong is set to replace Trent Alexander-Arnold after the Englishman joined Spanish giants Real Madrid.
