Ghanaian defender Terry Yegbe is attracting increasing attention from French Ligue 1 clubs following standout performances in Sweden’s Allsvenskan.
The 24-year-old centre-back, standing at an imposing 1.95 meters, has impressed with his all-around defensive abilities, quickly establishing himself as one of the most promising young talents in European football.
Currently contracted with Swedish club IF Elfsborg until 2028, Yegbe’s ability in aerial duels, technical prowess, and physicality make him a highly sought-after asset.
His consistency at the heart of Elfsborg’s defense has earned him widespread recognition, culminating in his first senior call-up to the Ghana national team in November 2024.
According to reports from Africafoot, Yegbe is now on the radar of several Ligue 1 clubs, with RC Lens and RC Strasbourg particularly interested.
Despite his preference for discretion regarding his future, sources confirm that both clubs are monitoring his progress closely ahead of a potential move this summer.
RC Lens, in particular, has shown a keen interest in strengthening their defensive options.
With the loan of Juma Bah from Manchester City likely to be extended, Lens officials are reportedly considering Yegbe as an alternative to bolster their squad.
The club’s need for an additional center-back has intensified with uncertainty surrounding the future of Malang Sarr, which makes Yegbe an appealing option for the French side.
Meanwhile, RC Strasbourg is also actively seeking a new defender in light of the anticipated departure of Abakar Sylla.
The Alsatian club is looking for a robust, physical presence in central defense, and Yegbe’s profile fits their requirements perfectly.
The Ghanaian’s strength, aerial dominance, and composure under pressure align with Strasbourg’s search for a reliable defensive reinforcement, and coach Liam Rosenior is reportedly keen to secure the 24-year-old’s signature.
Yegbe has been a fixture in Elfsborg’s lineup this season, amassing 23 appearances and playing over 2,000 minutes across all competitions.
His performances have solidified his status as one of the top defensive talents in the Swedish top tier.
With his market value currently estimated at €2.5 million by Transfermarkt, Yegbe could be an affordable and highly effective addition for any interested club.
As the summer transfer window approaches, the future of Terry Yegbe looks increasingly likely to be in one of Europe’s top leagues, with the Ghanaian poised to take the next step in his promising career.
