It brings great joy to witness one of our own achieve success in any aspect of life, and Celtic fans can certainly relate to this sentiment when it comes to Jeremie Frimpong.
The talented young right-back arrived in Glasgow from Manchester City as a teenager and immediately caught the eye with his impressive performances on the field.
Under the guidance of Neil Lennon, Frimpong quickly endeared himself to the supporters with his entertaining yet effective style of play and his infectious personality.
During his time at Celtic, he played a key role in winning a treble before making the move to Bayer Leverkusen in 2021. In Germany, he has continued to thrive and recently helped his team secure the Bundesliga title.
This achievement marked a historic moment for Bayer Leverkusen, as they clinched their first German championship with five games remaining in the season.
Throughout their successful campaign, Frimpong has been a standout performer, contributing to their unbeaten record in all competitions.
After a recent victory over Werder Bremen, Frimpong expressed his gratitude towards manager Xabi Alonso and even took a moment to appreciate journalist Archie Rhind-Tutt’s pink jacket during an interview.
Despite his growth as a player, Frimpong has remained true to his energetic and lovable character since his days at Celtic, further solidifying his status as a fan favorite.
