Frimpong backs Wirtz: "This is just the start" for Liverpool star

Frimpong also touched upon his own return from a lengthy hamstring injury, expressing his eagerness to contribute to Liverpool's pursuit of a better league position.

Having overcome significant injury setbacks, Frimpong is focused on utilizing his speed to aid Liverpool. He detailed the difficulty of his prolonged absence but credited his family for support. Frimpong also spoke positively about settling into the Liverpool squad, noting the welcoming nature of his teammates and his strong connection with Hugo Ekitike.
