Jeremie Frimpong has opened up on his love for Ghanaian and Nigerian music.
The Bayer Leverkusen right-back is a huge fan of Afrobeat music and recently attended an Asake concert. Asake is a Nigerian musician who has been topping charts across the world with his sweet musical deliveries.
Frimpong, who was born to Ghanaian parents in the Netherlands, has been spotted on various occasions jamming to Ghanaian and Nigerian songs.
In choosing songs from both countries, the former Celtic player disclosed his admiration for Nigerian music.
"I listen to both Ghanaian and Nigerian music, but Nigerian music is top. You have too many good musicians," he said in a video shared on social media.
"Asake is good right now. I went to Asake's concert. You have Burna Boy, Wizkid and Davido," he added as he opened up on his favourite Nigerian musicians.
Frimpong has been in blistering form on the pitch, starring in another impressive campaign under Xabi Alonso at Bayer Leverkusen.
Last season, he helped the club chalk a historic feat by winning the Bundesliga title for the first time, as reported by the BBC.
