Darko Boateng Gyabi (born 18 February 2004) is an English professional footballer who plays as a central midfielder for EFL Championship club Plymouth Argyle, on loan from fellow EFL Championship club Leeds United.

Club career

Having played for Cray Wanderers between the ages of eight and 11,[3] Gyabi joined Millwall in 2015. In 2018, Gyabi left to join the academy of Manchester City.[4] He played for City's under-21 side in three EFL Trophy games during the 2020–21 season.[5]

On 4 July 2022, Gyabi joined Leeds United on a four-year contract for a £5 million transfer fee in part of a swap deal involving Kalvin Phillips.[6][7] On 9 November 2022 he made his debut for Leeds in the EFL Cup against Wolverhampton Wanderers.[8][9] The next month saw him make his Premier League debut on 28 December 2022 in the 3-1 defeat to Manchester City as a second-half substitute.[10]

On 11 January 2024, Gyabi joined fellow Championship club Plymouth Argyle on loan until the end of the 2023-24 season.[11] On 26 March 2024 Gyabi's loan was cut short due to a season ending injury.[12]

On 2 July 2024, Gyabi returned to Plymouth Argyle for a second, season-long, loan spell.[13]

International career

Gyabi is of Ghanaian descent.[14]

In September 2021, Gyabi made his debut representing the England under-18 team.[15][16]

On 21 September 2022, Gyabi made his England U19 debut during a 2-0 2023 U19 Euro qualifying win over Montenegro.[17]

On 10 May 2023, Gyabi was included in the England squad for the 2023 FIFA U-20 World Cup.[18][19] He scored in a group stage victory over Uruguay and also played in their round of sixteen elimination against Italy.[20][21]

Style of play

Gyabi is right footed and plays mainly as a box-to-box midfielder; he has been described as being a player who catches the eye with his skill in tight areas with ability to dribble through midfield.[22]
