Emmanuel Gyamfi, a promising young defender, was born on 23 July 2004 in Germany. Currently aged 21, Gyamfi is making his name on the Scottish football scene as a reliable left back for Aberdeen Football Club. Standing tall at 5ft 10in (1.78m) and tipping the scales at 11st 2lb (71kg), he proves an imposing presence on the back line, fending off challenges with relative ease. Gyamfi can be identified on the pitch donning the number 77 jersey.
As analysed by Transfermarkt, his present market value stands approximately at £170k, spotlighting him as an emerging talent.
Gyamfi's professional football journey began in Germany’s 2. Bundesliga with Schalke 04 in July 2019, thus marking the first significant transfer of his nascent career. His potential was subsequently recognized by VVV-Venlo in the Netherlands, where he was sent on loan in July 2024. Gyamfi proved the point with his resilience and technique, making an impressive 30 first team appearances in league matches throughout his debut season 2024 - 2025.
His promising tenure at VVV-Venlo did not go unnoticed, and in July 2025, Gyamfi's skills were acquired by Aberdeen in Scotland's Premiership in a deal reported to be around £190k. The now 21-year-old defender is making a positive impact in the 2025 - 2026 season at Aberdeen, having already made five first team appearances and even opening his goal account in the league matches.
In addition to his Premiership performances, Gyamfi has had the chance to establish himself in other competitions, beginning with a start in the League Cup 2025 - 2026 for Aberdeen, and making an appearance as a substitute in the Conference League 2025 - 2026 for his Scottish side.
