Jeffrey Papayaw Adjei-Broni (born 15 April 2004), also known by his nickname, Papa, is a Danish footballer who plays as a forward for Danish 1st Division club Hvidovre IF.

Career

[edit]

Papa is a product of F.C. Copenhagen's youth academy, which he played for many years. In the summer of 2022, he made the move to Lyngby Boldklub, where he became part of the club's U-19 squad. After a very good season in Lyngby, where he scored 19 goals and 4 assists in 22 games, and a first place in the U-19 cup tournament, Papa left the club at the end of the season.[2]

On 28 June 2023, it was confirmed that Papa had signed with newly promoted Danish Superliga club Hvidovre IF, putting his signature on a 3-year deal.[3] Papa made his debut for Hvidovre, and in the top Danish league, on 21 July 2023, in a match against FC Midtjylland.[4] In the first 17 games of the first half of the season, Papa played just 168 minutes in the league over 9 games and 224 minutes in the cup over 3 games, scoring one goal.

Private life

Papa was born in Denmark, but has Ghanaian parents.[5]
