Ghana defender Terry Yegbe says he is excited to sign for Swedish club IF Elfsborg - with the deal expected to start running from January.

The 22-year-old Black Meteors center-back has signed a contract that spans until the year 2028.

Terry Yegbe’s transition to the Boras Arena marks a big step in his career after impressing during a two-year spell with the Finnish side SJK Seinäjoki.

Speaking after the deal was completed, Yegbe says he believes IF Elfsborg is the right place for him to continue his development.

“I am so excited to be here. IF Elfsborg offers a great environment where a player like me can continue to develop and build my confidence,” he told the club.

In the summer of 2018, when Terry Yegbe was 17 years old, he joined then Ghana Premier League side WAFA (West African Football Academy) from his hometown club, Kickers FC.

Later, he moved to the capital, Accra, and signed for Vision FC, which played in the second tier league. After two years with the team, he moved on to Finland and SJK in the Finnish top league, where he spent two seasons.

He also made three appearances for the Ghana U23 national team during the African Championship in Morocco this summer, all as a starter, before landing at IF Elfsborg.
