Konstantinos Tsimikas has joined Liverpool from Olympiacos, giving Jurgen Klopp an additional option at left-back.

Liverpool have confirmed the signing of defender Konstantinos Tsimikas on a long-term deal.

A Greece international who plays at left-back, Tsimikas joins the Premier League champions from Olympiacos for a reported fee of £11.7million (€13m).

The arrival of the 24-year-old provides an additional option to Andy Robertson, covering an area of need in Jurgen Klopp’s squad ahead of the 2020-21 season.

“I’m very happy, I’m very proud to be here. For me, [it’s] the biggest club in the world,” Tsimikas told Liverpool’s official website. “It’s an honour to be here and I will give my best.”

Tsimikas played in both legs as Olympiacos knocked Arsenal out of the Europa League, though their run in the competition was ended by Wolves in the following round.
