Liverpool already has a replacement for Alexander-Arnold, also liked by Florentino.

Making a historic move, Real Madrid has secured the signing of Trent Alexander-Arnold. Despite the lack of an official announcement, the announced departure of Arnold from Liverpool has brought him closer to his arrival at Valdebebas. While this is a hard blow for Liverpool, the club has quickly found Arnold's replacement.

Jeremie Frimpong is the player Liverpool has set its sights on to replace Arnold for the next season. Shining more than notably at Bayer Leverkusen, Frimpong has shown his mastery on the right wing. This led him, a few months ago, to be considered as a possible signing by Florentino Pérez.

Being young and having enormous potential for the future, Florentino saw Frimpong as a quality reinforcement for Real Madrid. However, the experience and great form of Alexander-Arnold ultimately convinced Florentino to finalize his transfer.

Arnold's replacement

At 24 years old, Jeremie Frimpong has become one of the great stars of Bayer Leverkusen. Under the direction of Xabi Alonso, the Dutch player has managed to progress more than notably. The 4 goals and 12 assists he has achieved in the 3,367 minutes played this season are a clear display of his unbelievable talent.

This led him to be on the radar of several teams like Real Madrid, which considered Frimpong for an upcoming market. However, it is Liverpool that has made great strides to finalize the signing of the talented Dutch player.

While Frimpong doesn't have the same quality as Arnold, Liverpool is determined to carry out his signing. Needing a player to secure the right wing, Liverpool has full trust in a Frimpong who was dismissed by Florentino Pérez.

The importance of Florentino

Always being right when he dismisses the signing of a player, Florentino saw something in Frimpong that didn't please him too much. Even so, only time will prove whether Liverpool managed to find its desired replacement for Arnold or failed with this operation.
