Yaw Yeboah joined Wisła Kraków. Four years ago he dreamed of playing for Pep Guardiola, today he will try to show what he can do in the Polish league.
It was in 2016. Yeboah had spent a year in Lille, France. He played there mainly in the reserves, but he also managed to make three appearances in the French league. He was then quoted by the Manchester Evening News. - Pep Guardiola wants me back to City. He contacted me.
It is an honour - the 19-year-old footballer boasted.
Dreams of the Premier League
Yeboah is a winger, he can run both left and right. He has a three-year contract with the Vistula.
This year he turned only 23 years old, but he has already seen what the ball looks like with a capital P. He was born in Accra, in the capital of Ghana, but as a teenager he went to England, to Manchester City.
He could have watched Sergio Aguera and other stars of world football up close during training, but he himself never made his Premier League debut. The English sent him on loan, hoping that the footballer would spread his wings and return ready for the world of great football. Yeboah tried not only in Lille, but also in the Netherlands (27 appearances in FC Twente) and then in Spain (21 appearances in Real Oviedo, in the 2nd league).
In 2018, he signed a contract with CD Numancia, and spent the last season on loan to Celta Vigo, playing in the third-league reserves.
Until recently, he probably dreamed that his career would develop differently. He has made his debut for the Ghana national team, previously he played in the youth team of this country.
He was, among others the best footballer of the U-20 World Cup.
Yaw Yeboah's transfer is to help solve Wisła's problems with the wingers.
