Bundesliga outfit Eintracht Frankfurt has signed a professional contract with Andrew Junior Awusi, an 18-year-old talent of Ghanaian descent, extending until June 2026 with an option for an additional year.
Awusi, who has been part of The Eagles’ setup since the age of 11, has demonstrated his potential within the club’s ranks.
Despite interest from various quarters, Eintracht Frankfurt swiftly secured Awusi’s services, warding off potential suitors eyeing his talent.
The club’s official website announced the deal, highlighting the Spanish Ghanaian winger’s tenure at the club since 2017 and the extension of his stay.
Sporting director Timmo Hardung expressed satisfaction in retaining Awusi, citing his exciting skills and the club’s commitment to his development. “We’re pleased that we’ve been able to retain another talented youngster for the coming years in Junior,” said Hardung. “With his dribbling ability in attack and threat in front of goal, he has an exciting skillset. Our joint task now is to gradually introduce Junior to men’s football so he can show his qualities on a regular basis on the pitch.”
Despite facing injuries, Awusi made notable contributions to Frankfurt’s U19 team during the U19-Bundesliga S/SW 23/24 season, scoring twice and providing five assists in 13 league appearances.
