He captained the team at the 2008 Gothia Cup in Sweden where they were runners up. Frimpong also made the shortlist for Ghana's 2007 national U-17 football team.

"I have soccer academy in my village with my friend called Sammy Appiah. We built Desire Academy in 2015. Purpose was about how we came through scholarship to America for college, we used that connections to help bring kids to high school and colleges. It’s easy for city players to be seen by scouts but not so easy for players from villages to be seen that is why we made the academy to help these players get fair chance to play the game and give them good education."
