Razak Pimpong (born December 30, 1982) is a Ghanaian football player who plays for F.C. Copenhagen.

He was part of the Ghanaian 2004 Olympic football team, who exited in the first round, having finished in third place in group B. He played for FC Midtjylland from 2004 to 2005.

Pimpong had a rough start in his FCK career, but he grew out of it and scored his first, and also very important, goal. It was the Royal League final winning goal which gave FCK victory.

The Ghanaian, who has been compared by some to the legendary Danish player Rene Nygaard Jensen, has been called up for the 2006 World Cup in Germany due to several fine performances for his side.

Despite some strong performances at club level Pimpong failed to impress at the world cup in Germany. Although he did show the dribbling skills that have gained him a transfer to FCK, in Germany he didn't score any goals and missed some vital chances.
