F.C. Copenhagen have completed the signing of Ghanaian teenage winger David Frimpong Boison from Medeama SC in a deal that underscores the Danish club’s growing appetite for emerging African talent.

The 18-year-old has signed an initial one-year contract with the Danish Superliga giants, with an option to extend beyond the 2025/26 season. His arrival is viewed as both a personal breakthrough and another nod to Ghana’s increasing reputation as a breeding ground for elite-level footballers.

Boison has already joined Copenhagen’s first-team squad for pre-season preparations and is expected to gradually integrate into the senior setup.

F.C. Copenhagen’s scouting department had been monitoring Boison’s progress for over a year, with club officials particularly impressed by his acceleration, dribbling ability, and positional intelligence during domestic matches with Medeama and his developmental years at Rospak SC.

"David is an exciting wide player who has consistently shown maturity beyond his age," said a club insider. "His movement off the ball, decision-making in the final third, and raw athleticism made him a standout in our scouting reports."

The move to Copenhagen marks Boison’s first foray into European football. For a player still in his teens, the opportunity to develop under the tutelage of experienced coaches in a competitive league represents a critical juncture in his career.

Though he is unlikely to be thrown straight into high-stakes competition, club insiders say Boison could feature in Danish Cup fixtures or lower-intensity league matches as the season progresses, depending on his adaptation.

Boison becomes the latest in a long line of young Ghanaian footballers making the leap from the local scene to European football—a trend that has accelerated in recent years thanks to improved scouting networks and partnerships between African and European clubs.

The Ghana Football Association has also invested in more structured player development pathways, and Boison’s rise from Rospak SC to Medeama SC and now F.C. Copenhagen mirrors that evolution.

For the player himself, the move is a dream realized.

“This is a huge moment for me and my family,” Boison said after his unveiling. “I’m grateful to Medeama and everyone who supported me in Ghana. Now the work starts. I’m here to learn, grow, and give my all to this badge.”

The winger’s former coaches at Medeama praised his work ethic and mentality, citing his focus and humility as key factors in his success.

While Copenhagen’s immediate goal is to strengthen their squad depth ahead of domestic and European competition, the acquisition of Boison is also part of a longer-term strategy focused on developing future stars.

Sporting Director Peter Christiansen emphasized that Boison will be given time to acclimate and isn’t being signed as an instant starter.

“We believe in David’s potential. He’s young, but he’s shown enough quality and character to make us confident this is the right step for both him and the club,” Christiansen noted.

If all goes well, Boison could follow in the footsteps of other African exports who have used Scandinavian football as a launchpad to top European leagues.
