FrankfurtDealing with illness
Pimpong missed Eintracht Frankfurt's team training Wednesday due to illness, according to the club.
Analysis: Pimpong remains primarily a substitute option for Frankfurt, and it remains unclear how long the illness will keep him sidelined. The 18-year-old is unlikely to be in contention for a starting role even if cleared, while missing further training could reduce his chances of making the squad for Saturday's clash against Mainz.
Signs for Frankfurt until 2031
Pimpong has joined Eintracht Frankfurt from FC Midtjylland on a contract until June 2031, the club announced.
Analysis: Pimpong scored 30 goals and provided one assist across 46 appearances for Midtjylland's U19 side over the past two seasons, including 20 goals in 26 matches this past campaign, while also being named in the first team's matchday squad for two Europa League fixtures. Pimpong has earned 24 caps across Denmark's youth national teams, scoring 12 goals in the process. Sporting director Timmo Hardung praised his talent and potential, emphasizing the club's intention to integrate him gradually and provide a stable environment for his development at Frankfurt.
