Jeremie Frimpong is open to joining Liverpool if they decide to sign a right-back this summer, according to Sky Sports.

The Bayer Leverkusen defender has informed the Bundesliga club of his desire to leave.

He is one of the names on Liverpool’s shortlist of potential signings and has a £29.5m (€35m) release clause.

The 24-year-old Netherlands international right-back was a key member of the Leverkusen team that won the German domestic double last season.

Leverkusen signed Frimpong from Celtic in a deal worth up to £11.5m in January 2021.

He moved from Manchester City to Celtic for £300,000 in September 2019.

Liverpool right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold announced last week he will leave the club when his contract expires on June 30.

Conor Bradley, 21, is ending the season as Liverpool’s first-choice right-back as they plan for the future without Alexander-Arnold.

Latest from Sky Sports News' Anthony Joseph:

Celtic would be due 30 per cent of the profit from any potential sale of Frimpong.

They sold him to Leverkusen for a fee of £11m in January 2021.

If his release clause of £29.5m (€35m) is met, the Hoops will be due around £5.5m from their sell-on clause.
