Tyler Onyango - Midfielder


Luton-born Tyler Onyango joined Everton aged eight.

A ball-winning winning midfielder, Onyango reads the game well and boasts impressive stamina.

Former Arsenal captain Patrick Vieira is his football hero, while Andre Gomes is his favourite Everton player.

Onyango had made such a good impression with the u18 team that he had been fast tracked in to the u23 team, and made his u23 debut against PSV Eindhoven on 30th October 2019.

David Unsworth said “He's a boy with a big opportunity and, potentially, with a big future,”.

“He looks the part, his regains our outstanding, he will get better and better. He's got the physique, the pace...I'm trying not to get too excited too soon but I like seeing that.

“All the best players start with us when they are 16 or 17, it's always been the case and history will tell you that and he's another one. He's come in and he's taken to the level straight away.”

On Friday 24th July 2020, Everton announced Tyler Onyango had signed his first professional contract with the Club, penning a three-year deal until the end of June 2023.

On 24th January 2021, Tyler came on as a late substitute for the Everton first team, in a 3-0 FA Cup victory against Sheffield Wednesday at Goodison Park.

At the end of the 2020-21 season, Tyler claimed the blue-riband Keith Tamlin Award at the Club’s Annual Academy Awards ceremony.

On 27th July 2022, Everton announced that Tyler had signed a new contract with the club, before completing a season-long loan to League One club Burton Albion.

Contracted until: June 2025.
