According to reports, Liverpool have reached a verdict on whether to sell Jeremie Frimpong in January amid claims he could leave.

Frimpong joined Liverpool from Bundesliga side Bayer Leverkusen for around £33m during the 2025 summer transfer window.

The 25-year-old emerged as one of Europe’s most exciting attacking wing-backs at Leverkusen after he previously had spells at Celtic and Manchester City.

However, Frimpong joined Liverpool as a potential replacement for Trent Alexander-Arnold following his move to Real Madrid and he has never felt like the right fit for the Premier League giants.

The Dutchman is not a right-back or a right winger, so he has never fit into Liverpool’s system.

Frimpong has had injuries since the start of last season, but his performances have also been poor as he has fallen in the pecking order over the past few months.

Summer signing Ronald Araujo has eased Liverpool’s issues at right-back this season and there are now claims that Frimpong could be sold in January.

A report from journalist Pete O’Rourke for Football Insider on Tuesday claimed Liverpool are to ‘consider’ selling Frimpong, with it said that the club ‘will accept a big offer’.

The report explained:

‘The Reds have no intention of cashing in on the Dutchman this winter, and are wary about potentially leaving their squad short of depth for the rest of the campaign.

‘However, sources say that if a “big offer” were to arrive from Saudi Arabia in the summer, then it is something that both Frimpong and the club would be open to.’

Liverpool decision reached on selling Jeremie Frimpong

Now, our colleagues at TEAMtalk claim ‘sources have shut down exit talk surrounding Liverpool right-back Jeremie Frimpong’ ahead of the winter transfer window’, with the outlet ‘able to confirm that links with the Saudi Pro League are wide of the mark’.

The report added:

‘Despite his challenging start, sources emphasise that Liverpool view Frimpong as part of their plans for the season. With his contract running until 2030, Liverpool are under no pressure to sell and have no intention of pushing for one in January.

‘The expectation is that he will recover, work his way back into contention, and contribute over the second half of the season as the Reds challenge domestically and in Europe.’
