Ghanaian youngster Jeremie Frimpong has claimed that the positive influence of veteran defender Scott Brown has been pivotal in helping him to settle in at Celtic.
The 18-year-old joined Celtic on a four-year-old this month from Manchester City and has become a fan favourite after excelling on his debut.
He made his first appearance in the 5-0 victory over Partick Thistle in the League Cup quarter-final last Wednesday.
“I used to play under-23 football so there’s a big difference, but you have to adapt to it,” Frimpong said. “It’s been really good.
“Everyone is good, but Scott Brown has impressed me. He’s been great. When I first came, I thought he was going to be a serious guy, but he jokes about and I really like that.
“When I came, he made sure he would speak to me, and everyone was really welcoming.
“At first I was nervous because you’re going into a new environment, but everyone was coming up to me and speaking to me, so I liked that.”
