Emmanuel Frimpong is a Ghanaian footballer who currently plays for the Tula Arsenal. This year he was only 24 years old, so his career is just beginning. Emmanuel Frimpong acts as a defensive midfielder, but can occupy any position in the center of the field, from the central to the attacking midfielder.
Carier start
Emmanuel Frimpong was born on January 10, 1992 in Ghana, however, as a young child, he moved with his family to England, directly to the capital of the country - London. There, a young talent was noticed by the local Arsenal, which at that time was one of the country's strongest clubs. In 2001, nine-year-old Emmanuel joined the club system, and five years later even dropped out to concentrate on the career of a football player. In 2010, when he was eighteen years old, he was offered a professional contract, which he gladly signed. However, there was no place for the player at the base, so almost immediately Emmanuelle Frimpong began to go on leases. In the 11/12 season, he spent as many as 14 matches for Arsenal, but all the time went out for a short replacement, so it was decided to send him to Wolverhampton so that he could gain experience. But there the young Ghanaian played only five matches. When he returned to Arsenal, he entered the field two more times, after which he again went on loan, this time to Charlton, and then to Fulham. In each of the clubs, Emmanuel spent six months playing six matches. By the summer of 2013, it became clear that Frimpong has no future at Arsenal, so six months later, the Ghanaian was sold for 250 thousand euros at Barnsley.
Going to Barnsley
Emmanuel Frimpong is a midfielder, whom several years ago had high hopes, which, unfortunately, he did not justify. Once at Barnsley, he spent only six games in six months, during which he did not convince the management, which refused to extend the short-term contract. As a result, on September 1, Frimpong moved to the Russian club Ufa in the status of a free agent.
Relocation to Russia
In “Ufa” the player did not work out well - of course, he played 28 matches in two years, but at the same time he spent part of them while on a tourist visa, which is a violation of the charter of the football federation. Moreover, he was disqualified for an indecent gesture against a fan, and as a result, in April 2016, the contract with him was terminated. In August, a two-year contract with Ghanaian was signed by Tula Arsenal, for which the player has currently played four matches.
Team appearances
In his youth, Frimpong was considered a great talent, so he received several challenges in the youth teams of England. But he did not wait for an adult call, so in March 2013 he made his debut for the Ghana national team - the same match is currently his last.
