Offaly teen makes Yeovil Town debut

Edenderry youngster Edwin Agbaje made his debut for Yeovil Town on Saturday having joined the National League outfit on loan.

Agbaje was sent on loan by his club Ipswich Town, whom he made his debut for in October last in the EFL Trophy.

The 19-year-old defender is a Republic of Ireland youth international and is included in a training camp with Ireland Under-19s this week.

Agbaje previously played with Edenderry Town and left for England from Shamrock Rovers.

Commenting on the loan move, Agbadje told the Yeovil Town website: “When I heard about the move, straight away I was open to it. Yeovil is a big club in this league, with a good history of playing in the top leagues.

"I wanted to come over straight away and get that experience of men’s football, at the right club, at the right time for me.“

First team manager Mark Cooper added; “Edwin is a young lad who arrives with a lot of potential.

“He’s impressed so far in training, he’s got a clear determination to do well in the game and that will bode well in his time here.”

Agbaje was introduced as a 75th minute sub in Yeovil's 2-0 victory away to Dagenham and Redbridge on Saturday.

Yeovil Town play in the National League, the division below EFL League Two.
