In June 2023, Yeboah began training with the first team squad and finished second behind Ayman Benarous in the Bristol City pre-season fitness SDS test. In July 2023, he was included in the Bristol City first-team squad on a pre-season training camp to Austria and signed a three-year professional contract with the club.
