Jeremie Agyekum Frimpong (born 10 December 2000) is a Dutch professional footballer who plays as a right wing-back for Bundesliga club Bayer Leverkusen and the Netherlands national team.

Club career

Manchester City

Frimpong joined Manchester City at the age of nine[4] and progressed through the club's youth ranks, with regular appearances in Premier League 2 and the UEFA Youth League.[5]

Celtic

On 2 September 2019, Frimpong signed a four-year deal with Celtic.[6] Later that month, he made his professional debut against Partick Thistle in the Scottish League Cup quarter-finals.[7] He made an immediate impact, winning the man of the match award on his debut, and going to become a regular in the first team.[8] His speed and skill was highlighted by the media, and made him popular with Celtic fans.[9][10] Frimpong quickly became a fan favorite with his electrifying pace, tenacity, and attacking prowess from the right-back position.[11] On 27 October, Frimpong scored in a 4–0 win against Aberdeen,[12] his first professional goal.[13] He won his first career honour on 8 December 2019, when Celtic defeated Rangers 1–0 in the Scottish League Cup Final.[14][15] He was described by Celtic manager Neil Lennon as "outstanding" and "arguably our best [outfield] player in the first half", although he was sent off early in the second half for a foul on Alfredo Morelos in the penalty box.[16] In June 2020, Frimpong was voted Celtic's Young Player of the Year for season 2019–20 by the club's supporters.[17]

Bayer Leverkusen

On 27 January 2021, Frimpong signed for German side Bayer Leverkusen for an undisclosed fee, on a four and a half year deal.[18] On 3 October 2023, he extended his contract until 2028.[19]

International career

Born in the Netherlands, Frimpong is of Ghanaian descent.[20][21] His family moved to England when he was seven years old. As such, he is eligible to play for the Netherlands, Ghana, and England.[21]

Frimpong has represented the Netherlands at under-19 youth international level, and made his international debut against Armenia U19 in November 2018.[22] In November 2019, he made his under-20 debut.[23]

In November 2022, Frimpong was included in the final selection of the Netherlands senior national team for the 2022 FIFA World Cup.[24] Even though, according to an article on the NOS website, he does not speak a lot of Dutch, he understands match talks and football language.[25] He did not appear in the tournament, as the Netherlands were knocked out by Argentina in the quarter-finals.[citation needed] He made his first appearance for the Netherlands on 13 October 2023, making a substitute appearance in the UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying match against France.
