Second Half Screamer Secures League Cup Semi for Motherwell

Aberdeen have announced the signings of two new players ahead of the 2025/26 season, after completing deals for German left back Emmanuel Gyamfi and Australian striker Kusini Yengi.

Gyamfi joins from Bundesliga 2 side FC Schalke 04 on a four year contract, whilst Australian international Yengi, who’s younger brother Tete plays for Livingston, joins from English Championship side Portsmouth, having signed a pre-contract with the Scottish Cup winners.

Speaking on his new recruits, Aberdeen boss Jimmy Thelin said:

“We were quite specific about the type of profile we had identified to play as a striker for Aberdeen and Kusini has a lot of qualities that we are after.

“Emmanuel is a player we have been monitoring for some time. He possesses all the attributes we are looking for in a modern full-back. He’s dynamic and has a great work ethic.

“It is important for us to have different profiles of players who can bring us specific strengths to our shape and how we want to play.”

The Dons face a gruelling schedule this season, with guaranteed European league phase football on the horizon following their historic Scottish Cup Final victory over holders Celtic, and will be keen to bed their new signings in quickly before their Europa League play-off tie and the start of the domestic campaign.
