Celtic fans love Jeremie Frimpong’s ‘infectious personality’ as 18-year-old leads celebrations after Aberdeen win
CELTIC fans have fallen in love with Jeremie Frimpong’s “infectious personality” after he led the celebrations after beating Aberdeen.
The Dutch youngster, 18, raced over to travelling fans and bounced around in front of them after scoring his first goal in the 4-0 win at Aberdeen.
Frimpong raced from the right-back position to convert Odsonne Edouard’s cross to give his side a 2-0 lead after the latter’s tenth-minute opener.
James Forrest and Mohamed Elyounoussi also scored as Aberdeen suffered their heaviest home defeat against Celtic since February 2008, losing 5-1 that day.
And Hoops fans have been raving about Frimpong above all others after his sensational showing on and off the pitch.
After the game, in the post-match interview, the former Manchester City youth team star said: “I enjoyed it a lot. The team played so well.
“We dominated, took our chances – I’m so proud of the team.
“[The goal] was everything I wanted. I got my first assist in the home game, now my first goal…
“That is quality, man. And the fans, I love them.”
‘WHAT A FIND’
And it’s fair to say the supporters love Frimpong too, with one tweeting, “Simply exquisite” when describing his celebration.
Another wrote: “The lad is joyous.”
A third said: “Just me waiting on a Frimpong T-shirt getting made? Wee mans brilliant!”
One even came up with a new chant: “His hair is fine, he scored at Pittodrie that one time. That’s why we sing this song, for Jeremie Frimpong.”
