Former Arsenal midfielder Emmanuel Frimpong says he does not see any player in Sweden as big as he is following his move from Russia to Swedish side Eskilstuna.

"I know nothing really about the players in the Swedish Premier League. But I know that no one is like Frimpong.”

"Name a player who is bigger than Frimpong?" he told Aftonbladet.

"Okay, all respect for Källström as a player. I met him at Spartak Moscow, and he's a great player. But he is not like Frimpong. There is just one Emmanuel Frimpong."

The 25-year-old, who was highly tipped for success at the highest stage by many pundits in England, joined Tula from FK Ufa in 2016 alongside Ghana defender Awal Mohammed after a botched move to Major League Soccer side Kansas Sporting City.

However, the Frimpong found life frustrating at the Russian club, making just three league appearances with only one start, leading to a mutual termination of his contract and made a move to Sweden.
