Frank Acheampong
Ghana winger Frank Acheampong is celebrating another successful Chinese
Super League season with Tianjin Teda after finishing as the club’s top assist.
Frank Acheampong, who completed his second full season with Tianjin Teda, scored
nine goals and provided nine assists.
Coached by former Switzerland and Ivory Coast manager Uli Stielike, the team
finished seventh, the club’s best performance in more than five seasons, thanks
to Frank Acheampong’s inspirational performances worthy of player of the season
for the club.
Acheampong ? a veteran of two Africa Cup of Nations competitions
in 2015 and 2017 with the Black Stars and bronze medal winner at the 2013 FIFA
under 20 World Cup in Turkey ? was involved
in 18 league goals for Tianjin Teda throughout the season.
He scored a league record 17 goals for the club in his first full season last
term to help Tianjin Teda survive relegation.
His performance last season earned him a contract extension until the December
2021 after joining from Belgian giants Anderlecht in an initial six months’ loan
in 2017.
Frank has gone on to become Tianjin Teda’s most important player in the last
two-and-a-half seasons, scoring 32 league goals in a little over 70
appearances.
The former Berekum Chelsea and King Faisal winger is among the top performers
in the Chinese Super League the last two seasons.
