Melkamu Frauendorf, one of Jurgen Klopp’s academy debutants, has found a new club after being released by Liverpool this summer. He is now playing for a second-tier team in Germany.
The 20-year-old, who signed from Hoffenheim in 2020, played primarily for the academy, missing just two games for the first team—one of which was a Carabao Cup start against Derby.
Due to injuries that marred his final season, Frauendorf was released this summer, allowing him to find a new team to finish his career.
The midfield player signed with Hannover 96 of the 2.Bundesliga right away. Although there will be opportunities for him to rise up, he will initially be a part of their under-23 squad.
“With the U23s’ promotion to the 3rd division, we were able to show him a way to find his way into men’s football in Germany and prove himself at a good level,” said Marcus Mann, sporting director of Hannover.
“The door is open for him to slide into the top, as it is for everyone, if he succeeds.”
The 20-year-old, a German youth international, has a lot of speed and has worked really hard while attending Liverpool’s academy.
Frauendorf expressed the kind of mindset that 96 will be glad to have in their ranks after completing his free transfer, saying: “I am very happy about the chance to be back in Germany and to have the opportunity to play in the 3rd division at Hannover 96.”
“Compared to other clubs in Germany, the opportunities that 96 can provide a young player with first-class conditions in the academy and of course due to the constellation with the U23s in the 3rd division are very exceptional.”
Frauendorf was one of eight academy grads released by Liverpool this summer, along with twenty-year-old Mateusz Musialowski and twenty-year-old Adam Lewis.

current transfer rumours surrounding Liverpool as the team looks to bolster its roster this summer under new manager
Arne Slot As Liverpool gets ready for a new chapter under Arne Slot, all eyes are on the summer transfer market.
The Reds are in for an interesting moment now that they have a new manager in charge for the first time since Brendan Rodgers was replaced by Jurgen Klopp in October 2015. On August 17, Slot’s team will go to Ipswich Town to open their Premier League campaign with the hopes of making a strong start.
Additionally, the Reds are also monitoring Jamal Musiala’s current circumstances at Bayern Munich, according to our friends at the Mirror. He reportedly believes that the Premier League is the next phase of his career.
With two goals scored by Germany thus far at Euro 2024, the aggressive midfielder has already had a major impact. Musiala has reportedly turned down a new £150,000-per-week contract from Bayern, but he has chosen to remain open to other options. The German star is reportedly attracting interest from Chelsea and Manchester City as well.
The 21-year-old will reportedly cost at least £80 million; he still has two years left on his current Bayern contract. In addition, his estimated weekly salary is in the region of £200,000.
According to reports elsewhere, Liverpool is reportedly considering Wolves left-back Rayan Aït-Nouri, with interest also expressed by Man City and Chelsea, according to the Algerian media outlet La Gazette du Fennec.
According to reports, the 23-year-old is prepared to advance in his career by joining a Champions League team. Throughout the previous season, Aït-Nouri was a constant in Wolves’ defence, making 38 appearances in all competitions as Gary O’Neil’s team placed 14th in the Premier League.
