Multitalented Career

Yannick Yankam, the Maltese midfielder, is not only a professional football player but also a rapper and model. As he prepares to face England and Harry Kane on the pitch, he showcases his diverse talents off the field.

International Success

Yankam, who has nine caps and one goal for Malta, has been included in the 24-man squad for the Euro 2024 qualifier against England. He hopes to add to his international achievements and make a difference in the game.

Rapping and Modeling

When he's not training or playing football, Yankam goes by the stage name Yannick and is a member of the 215collective rap group. He released his debut EP in 2019 and was even nominated for the best hip hop/RnB artist at the Bay Music Awards. Additionally, he has made appearances as a model, including at Malta Fashion Week in 2021.

A Well-Rounded Career

Yankam's social media profiles showcase his music and modeling career, as well as his performances on the pitch. Since his debut for Malta in March, he has scored one goal and earned eight more caps. At the club level, he won the Maltese Cup with Birkirkara and made an impact in the Europa Conference League.

Looking Ahead

After making an appearance off the bench in a previous match against England, Yankam hopes to be in the starting lineup for the upcoming game at Wembley Stadium. Despite England already securing their place in Germany next summer, Yankam and the Maltese squad are determined to put on a strong performance.

England's final qualifier will be against North Macedonia on November 20.
