Former Spain midfielder Gaizka Mendieta suggested that Chelsea may pursue Jeremie Frimpong from Liverpool after a challenging first season for the right-back. Frimpong, who joined Liverpool as part of a £446m spending spree in 2025, faced injury issues that sidelined him from the World Cup. Despite the speculation, selling Frimpong could reflect poorly on Liverpool's management, considering their injury concerns in defense. Liverpool’s new head coach Andoni Iraola may look to revitalize Frimpong’s form next season.
