Quote: "Liverpool is a massive club, so it's always a huge responsibility. If you play for Liverpool, you have to be at your best and deliver results. I have always believed in myself. I am a winner. That's what I'm bringing to the team.

The Premier League is the best league in the world. I grew up in Manchester, so I've always wanted to come back. It was always part of the plan. I know what it means to be a champion with Bayer, so joining a title-winning side is a privilege. Watching them on TV and now playing for them—it's crazy," Frimpong told Sky Sports in an interview.
