The newly crowned Premier League Liverpool champions are now very close to signing the Bayer Leverkusen star, Jeremie Frimpong, with sources that reveal to Teamtalk how Richard Hughes has been working for a long time in the agreement and with his agent now traveling to Merseyside to wrap the transfer.
Leverkusen is expected to have a review of Big Squad after the news that manager Xabi Alonso will leave the club this summer.
The Spanish is ready to move to Real Madrid, and some of his best players, such as Frimpong, Florian Wirtz and Jonathan Tah, could also be moving.
Liverpool has been tracking the International of the Netherlands for a long time, which can play as a right end, a right wing or side, while looking for a replacement for Trent Alexander-Arnold to Madrid.
Three months after confirming exclusively that Liverpool was in Frimpong, our sources can reveal that the change of 24 years to Anfield is now in the final stages.

Despite the reported interest of whites, Frimpong has always made clear: his dream is to play in the Premier League.
The former Celtic man has a liberation clause of about € 40 million (£ 33.6 million, $ 44.5 million) and Liverpool are ready to pay it to avoid the competition of other clubs, with the Bayern Munich among those who expect in the wings.
Teamtalk understands that conversations with the player are very advanced, Frimpong is happy with the offer of an agreement of five years until 2030, and is pressing to complete the movement soon.
In addition, sports director Richard Hughes has begun to set the foundations in an agreement already in February and once it is known that the Reds officials would continue that Alexander-Arnold would continue.
