Liverpool completed a £29m deal to sign Jeremie Frimpong last summer.
The Dutchman came in from Bayer Leverkusen after Liverpool sporting director Richard Hughes triggered his release clause.
Frimpong was acquired just as Trent Alexander-Arnold was leaving - with it reckoned that he could be a long-term replacement for the England man at right-back.
And that’s where he started the season - although it’s fair to say Frimpong struggled to get going in his Liverpool career.
His start to life at right-back was inauspicious - opening the door to Dominik Szoboszlai to grab a starting role on the right side of defence.
£29m Frimpong an option at right-back and right wing
Injuries haven’t helped either - with the 25-year-old suffering two hamstring injuries in the first few months of the campaign.
He has also been utilised on the right side of midfield - and at right wing - which is a more natural positionfor him based on his record at previous clubs.
Liverpool will soon require a permanent replacement for Mohamed Salah - with it reckoned that the Egyptian King could move on either in January or next summer.
With Conor Bradley another option at right-back Frimpong will have his chance to stake a claim to become Liverpool’s next right winger.
