FRIMPONG not afraid of competition!
January 24, 2013
After blowing his 26 candles, Yaw FRIMONG who had a remarkable season with Asante Kotoko de Kumasi (Ghana) will be in the TPM jersey. Trained in the Feyenoord Academy not far from Accra, the right winger wants to take Mazembe on the top of the continental football in 2013. Very ambitious with his new club, the Ghanaian, who is lively and physical as well comes to compete with the formers NKULUKUTA and NDONGA with the same technical qualities and almost of the same size (1.69 m). Just find out in this mini portrait the young defender who also went through ASEC Abidjan.
"Mazembe has no competitor in sub-Saharan Africa, in my view; to be part of a team that is growing in performance is a boon for my career.” By signing a contract for 5 years with the TPM, Yaw FRIMPONG intends to raise his international career after the Ivory Coast championship in loan at ASEC Mimosas from 2009 to 2010; unfortunately he did not take in the African Cup interclubs.
His talents do not prevent him from having a place in Europe, since he failed the test in 2008 in a Swedish club of Helsingborg IF Yaw FRIMPONG always looking for a club that will allow him to win either a continental title or to used as stepping-stone to move to the highest level: "It is not a coincidence that I come to Lubumbashi in TPM. Working hard I won the championship with Ghana Asante Kotoko de Kumasi with which I should compete in the Champions League in 2013. When Mazembe contacted me it was time for me to grasp the ball. Playing in one of the best clubs in Africa is a great pleasure. By signing with this team, I have nothing to envy from my friends who are in the Maghreb. From Lubumbashi, I can win Cups before playing perhaps in Europe ...”
“I expect challenges”
His size (1.69 m) and with his 67 kg he is a very lively right winger. His association with either ULIMWENGU, KABANGU, SAMATTA observers will flow saliva. He said. "I know very well the club Mazembe, because during the major events worldwide (World Cup FIFA Club, Champions League), TV broadcast days information on the team, which helped me fully to know some players. Patou KABANGU, SAMATTA, ULIMWENGU who play right. There is also the goalkeeper of the national team KIDIABA and Tresor MPUTU. They have talent and I don’t come to teach them football, but just my contribution to building a great team in Africa. It won’t be easy to get a starting permanent position in a very effective expanded team with many international players. On each occasion where the coach will call me, I shall take this opportunity to impose myself. I also play as a right winger, versatility, which I hope will benefit me in the TPM.”
In Lubumbashi FRIMPONG will meet friends, his former captain of Asante Kotoko, Daniel ADJEI and his fellow-citizen Gladson AWAKO. FRIMPONG qualities make him the perfect alternative solution as a right defender in the device of Lamine NDIAYE. We look forward to seeing him in action.
