Bunesliga club Eintracht Frankfurt have awarded a professional contract to Andrew Junior Awusi, a talented teenager of Ghanaian descent.

The contract, effective until June 2026, includes an option for an additional year extension. Awusi, 18, has been nurtured by The Eagles since the age of 11, showcasing his promise within the club’s ranks.

Facing interest from various quarters, Eintracht Frankfurt acted swiftly to secure Awusi’s services, fending 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, emphasizing 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. 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 battling injuries, Awusi made significant 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.
