Ephraim Yeboah (born 21 July 2006) is an Italian professional footballer who plays for EFL League Two club Doncaster Rovers, on loan from EFL Championship club Bristol City.

Early life

Yeboah was born in Montirone, Italy, but moved to Bristol with his family at the age of eight. His family are friends with footballer Saikou Janneh, who first helped Yeboah join Inner Bristol City, in order to help him settle while he was still learning to speak English.

Career

In August 2021, Yeboah, along with teammate Elijah Morrison, were recruited by Bristol City from the Bristol Inner City Football Academy in Easton.

In June 2023, Yeboah began training with the first team squad and finished second behind Ayman Benarous in the Bristol City pre-season fitness SDS test. In July 2023, he was included in the Bristol City first-team squad on a pre-season training camp to Austria and signed a three-year professional contract with the club. He made his professional debut for Bristol City on 9 August 2023, in the EFL Cup at home against Oxford United in a 5–1 win. Following successive appearances as an impact substitute, on 20 August 2023, manager Nigel Pearson denied that Yeboah would be leaving on loan to gain experience and intimated he was in his first team thoughts, saying, "Why would we let anyone else have him?"

On 27 February 2024, Yeboah joined National League South side Bath City on loan until the end of the 2023–24 season. That same day, he scored on his league debut for Bath City, against Braintree Town.

On 11 June 2024, EFL League Two side Doncaster Rovers announced that Yeboah would join the club on loan until the end of the 2024–25 season.

Personal life

Yeboah is of Ghanaian descent.
