Celtic

On 2 September 2019, Frimpong signed a four-year deal with Celtic.[6] Later that month, he made his professional debut against Partick Thistle in the Scottish League Cup quarter-finals.[7] 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.[8] His speed and skill was highlighted by the media, and made him popular with Celtic fans.[9][10] On 27 October, Frimpong scored in a 4–0 win against Aberdeen,[11] his first professional goal.[12] He won his first career honour on 8 December 2019, when Celtic defeated Rangers 1–0 in the Scottish League Cup Final.[13][14] He was described by Celtic manager Neil Lennon as "outstanding" and "arguably our best [outfield] 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.[15] In June 2020, Frimpong was voted Celtic's Young Player of the Year for season 2019-20 by the club's supporters.[16]

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.[17]
