Kelvin Frimpong is Kenpong Academy’s youngest gem—a left-footed phenom blending childlike audacity with a savant-like grasp of the game. Born April 22, 2012, this Ghanaian wonderkid operates with the tactical discipline of a veteran and the fearless creativity of a street-football prodigy. At just 163 cm, his compact frame is a weapon: a low center of gravity lets him slalom through defenses like a phantom, while his left foot paints defenses into corners with whipped crosses, disguised passes, and knifing cutbacks.
Wearing #24, Kelvin defies his age as a tactical chameleon. He reads defensive shapes like a chessboard, darting into half-spaces or hugging the touchline to stretch play, all while retaining the composure to recycle possession when chaos reigns. His defensive IQ shines equally—he anticipates counterattacks, tracks overlapping fullbacks, and presses with a tenacity that belies his size. Though slight, his agility and balance make him a nightmare in 1v1 duels, while his vision and two-footed awareness (despite favoring his left) hint at a future playmaking maestro.
Off the pitch, Kelvin radiates a quiet, studious intensity. Coaches marvel at his notebook filled with tactical diagrams and opponent tendencies, a habit inspired by Ghanaian legends like Abedi Pele. Rooted in Kenpong Academy’s philosophy of “brains over brawn,” he embodies the academy’s mission to craft Africa’s next generation of cerebral technicians. His dream? To become the blueprint for the modern winger—where intelligence, adaptability, and flair eclipse raw physicality.
“Kelvin isn’t just playing for tomorrow—he’s reimagining it. A 12-year-old who doesn’t just learn systems… he reinvents them.”*
