The Mirror says after the latest round of negotiations, Liverpool were informed Frimpong was eager to see a deal clinched.
The club's Dutch contingent, which includes Holland teammates Virgil van Dijk, Ryan Gravenberch and Cody Gakpo, along with manager Arne Slot and his staff, is said to have been a major influence in Frimpong's decision.
Liverpool have also held talks with Bayer about Frimpong's buyout clause, which is said to range between €35-40m. The Reds are seeking to organise a structured payment arrangement.
For the player, a five-year contract is now on the table for his approval.
