We believe Terry Yegbe will integrate into the squad in a very good way - Elfsborg manager Jimmy Thelin

Elfsborg manager Jimmy Thelin says he believes Ghanaian defender Terry Yegbe will integrate into the team in a very good way.

The 22-year-old signed for the Swedish club this week on a long term contract that will run until 2028.

Thelin was full of praise for the qualities of the Black Meteors player as the former Vision FC begins his spell at the club in January.

“Terry is a player with impressive speed, power, and precision in his long passing game. Combined with his strength and athletic ability, we believe Terry will integrate into the squad in a very good way,” Thelin told the club’s website.

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.
