Liverpool are reportedly ready to move on from right-back Jeremie Frimpong just 18 months after sporting director Richard Hughes signed him from Bayer Leverkusen. Anfield Watch highlights that the club is actively pursuing replacements in the transfer market, having reportedly made an approach for Tottenham's Pedro Porro among other interested suitors.
