Yeshchenko became famous appearing in a short spell for Dynamo Kyiv in 2006.

In turn, Dynamo management loaned the back to its fellow Muscovite club.
In October 2012 he was voted FC Lokomotiv Moscow Player of the month.[1]
On 1 July 2014, Yeshchenko signed for Kuban Krasnodar on a season-long loan deal with the option to buy.[2]
On 16 June 2016, he signed with FC Spartak Moscow.[3]
