Jeremie Agyekum Frimpong (born 10 December 2000) is a Dutch professional footballer who plays as a right winger or wing-back for Bundesliga club Bayer Leverkusen and the Netherlands national team. He is regarded as one of the best wing-backs in the world.

Club career

Manchester City

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

Celtic

On 2 September 2019, Frimpong signed a four-year deal with Celtic. Later that month, he made his professional debut against Partick Thistle in the Scottish League Cup quarter-finals. 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. His speed and skill was highlighted by the media, and made him popular with Celtic fans. Frimpong quickly became a fan favorite with his electrifying pace, tenacity, and attacking prowess from the right-back position. On 27 October, Frimpong scored in a 4–0 win against Aberdeen, his first professional goal. He won his first career honour on 8 December 2019, when Celtic defeated Rangers 1–0 in the Scottish League Cup Final. He was described by Celtic manager Neil Lennon as "outstanding" and "arguably our best 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. In June 2020, Frimpong was voted Celtic's Young Player of the Year for season 2019–20 by the club's supporters.

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. On 3 October 2023, he extended his contract until 2028,with a release clause of £35 million. Frimpong was a key figure in helping Leverkusen win their first Bundesliga title, blitzing past Werder Bremen 5–0 on 14 April 2024 to end the title race as champions and breaking an eleven-year stranglehold on the league by Bayern Munich. Frimpong started at home against Augsburg on 18 May 2024 in a 2–1 victory. The victory sealed an unbeaten season for Bayer Leverkusen, the first such season in Bundesliga history.

International career

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

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

In November 2022, Frimpong was included in the final selection of the Netherlands senior national team for the 2022 FIFA World Cup. According to an article on the NOS website, although he does not speak Dutch, he understands match talks and football language. He did not appear in the tournament, which saw the Netherlands knocked out by Argentina in the quarter-finals. On 13 October 2023, he debuted as a substitute in the UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying match against France.

On 29 May 2024, Frimpong was named in the Netherlands' squad for UEFA Euro 2024. He scored his first senior international goal in a pre-tournament friendly against Canada on 6 June.

Personal life

Frimpong is a devout Christian and acknowledged the fact that after the COVID-19 pandemic, he would surely attend a church, which he found in Glasgow.
