Ghanaian defender Jeremie Frimpong has shared his excitement after scooping the Player of the Season award at Bayer Leverkusen.
The Dutch-born Ghanaian pulled 30.7% of the votes cast to win the prestigious award. Frimpong beat off competition from Florian Wirtz and Robert Andrich for the top award.
"Blessed. Thank you for naming me Player Of The Season, Bayer Leverkusen," wrote the defender on Twitter.
The 22-year-old was impressive in the just-ended season for the Bundesliga outfit, scoring 9 goals and providing 11 assists.
He emerged as a club’s second top scorer at the end of the 2022/23 football season. Only Moussa Diaby scored more goals than the Dutch-Ghanaian.
He was played a huge role when the club reached the semifinals of the Europa League.
Frimpong also ended the season as the club's second fastest player with the speed of 36.00 Km/h.
