Bayer Leverkusen bid farewell to Florian Wertz and Jeremie Frimpong
After Liverpool completed the official signing of German national team star and former Bayer Leverkusen star Florian Wirtz, the English giants have completed the signing of another Bayer Leverkusen star, Dutchman Jeremie Frimpong, for the right-back position.
The German superstar arrived at Liverpool in one of the most expensive deals in Premier League history, one week after the signing of Dutch star Jeremie Frimpong, who played for Bayer Leverkusen.
How Bayer Leverkusen said goodbye to their stars after their arrival at Liverpool
Following Liverpool's official announcement of the Florian Wirtz deal, Bayer Leverkusen announced the deal via their official social media pages, which included a beautiful farewell in letters mixed with a lot of gratitude for what the two players have done.
Inseparable. Make sure they keep laughing together.
With this phrase, Bayer Leverkusen said goodbye to the two stars who have contributed greatly to the recent renaissance of Bayer Leverkusen with a series of beautiful photos of the German and the Dutchman together.
What Florian Wirtz had to say about his Dutch teammate
Frimpong was a prominent presence in Wijnaldum’s interview with Liverpool’s media team, where he spoke passionately about the Dutch international.
Wijnaldum shared his thoughts on Frimpong: “I played with him for about three or four years, if I remember correctly. He’s an incredible player, a fantastic person, and always full of energy. He fits perfectly in any dressing room and delivers both offensively and defensively on the pitch. Back then, he was the first to sign for Liverpool, and naturally, he wanted me to join him too. But I believe I made my own decision—though maybe he played a tiny part in convincing me in the end.”
