Born in the Netherlands on 10th December 2000, Jeremie Frimpong is an established defender who serves his footballing craft on the right back for Liverpool. He is a young man of 24 years with a height of 5ft 8in (1.74m) and a weight of 11st (70kg). In addition to his club duties, Frimpong has also represented the Netherlands national team with pride.
Embarking on his football journey as a trainee, Frimpong had his first experience of the big stage when he joined Manchester City in the Premier League back in July 2015. Not one to rest on his laurels, he sought a new challenge and found it in the shape of Celtic Football Club in the Scottish Premiership. In September 2019, with a meagre transfer fee of around £350k under his name, he made the move.
His time at Celtic made history. In his debut season of 2019-2020, he took to the pitch for 14 first team appearances and netted two goals in league matches. His second season (2020-2021) saw an impressive tally of 22 appearances and a goal to his credit.
Yet, Frimpong's insatiable thirst for new challenges led him to the Bundesliga's Bayer Leverkusen in January 2021, for a sum of around £12m. His time in Germany paid off in spectacular fashion. During the 2020-2021 season, despite the mid-year disruption, he managed to don the shirt for ten league matches. In his first full 2021-2022 season, Frimpong marked 25 appearances and a single goal to his tally. The following 2022-2023 season, he took to the pitch for 34 matches, wielding an impressive eight goals. The 2023-2024 season was no exception, with 31 matches and nine goals to his name. Serving the current 2024-2025 season, he has already made 33 appearances and scored five goals.
Not limiting himself to club play, Frimpong has also represented his national team in several international tournaments. He played in the Euro 2024 for the Netherlands, marking one start with two substitute appearances. He also contributed to the Euro Qualifiers 2022-2024 with a single substitute appearance. Most recently, in the Nations League 2024-2025, he demonstrated his immense talent with three starts and two substitute appearances.
