Kyle Stephen Joel Ebecilio (born 17 February 1994) is a Dutch professional footballer who features for NEC. Ebecilio, who plays as a midfielder, has featured for Arsenal, Nottingham Forest as well as Eredivisie sides ADO Den Haag and FC Twente throughout his career.[2][3][4][5]

Club career

Arsenal

Born in Rotterdam, Netherlands, Ebecilio started his youth career at Feyenoord when he was seven.[6] Ebecilio soon attracted interest from Premier League clubs[7] and eventually joined Arsenal in 2010.[8] In 2011, Ebecilio signed his first professional contract with the club.[9] In November 2011, Ebecilio felt it was time for him to make his breakthrough at Arsenal.[10] While at Arsenal, Ebecilio helped the club to reach to fourth place of the 2012-13 NextGen Series.[11]

In May 2013, Ebecilio was offered a new contract with the club after years at the club's academy.[1] Meanwhile, other clubs were interested in signing Ebecilio.[12][13]

Twente

In May 2013, Ebecilio signed a five-year contract with FC Twente, returning to his homeland after three years in England.[14]

Ebecilio made his professional debut on 3 August 2013, coming on as a substitute for Dario Tanda in the 60th minutes, in a 0–0 draw against RKC Waalwijk.[15] Ebecilio scored his first professional goal in the next game, in a 4–1 win over Feyenoord.[16] Later in his first season, having been ever-present in this season, Ebecilio scored six more goals against Heracles,[17] NAC Breda,[18] PSV Eindhoven,[19] Roda JC Kerkrade,[20] N.E.C.[21] and PEC Zwolle.[22]

In his second season at Twente, Ebecilio added two more goals against Utrecht on 28 September 2013[23] and AZ Alkmaar on 5 October 2014.[24] In December 2014, Ebecilio clashed with Manager Alfred Schreuder resulting in him being left out of the squad for four matches.[25] Ebecilio scored on his return, in a 2–1 win over Cambuur on 31 January 2015.[26]

Nottingham Forest

On 20 August 2015, Ebecilio joined Championship side Nottingham Forest on a season-long loan.[27] He made his debut in a 1–1 draw away at Bolton Wanderers on 22 August 2015. However, having made only five first-team appearances for the club due to injury, Ebecilio's loan deal at Nottingham was terminated on 31 January 2016; the last day of the English and Dutch winter transfer window. He was instantly loaned out to ADO Den Haag where he stayed for the remaining duration of that season.[3][28][29]

Return to Twente

Ebecilio then returned to FC Twente in the summer of 2016.[30] He was not featured by the Tukkers as a regular player for the first side, partly due to suffering from a mild variety of Guillain–Barré syndrome.[31] Ebecilio thus left the club in March 2017.[3][5][32]

NEC

Ebecilio signed up with N.E.C in November 2017 where at first he sought to regain his fitness. Ebecilio was eventually added to the squad of Jong N.E.C. in late January 2018.[33][34]

International career

Ebecilio has represented The Netherlands at various youth levels, from the under 16 to under 21 teams.[35]

At the UEFA European Under-17 Championship in Serbia, Ebecilio scored three goals in the 2011 tournament which the Dutch won for the first time. He stood out earning the Golden Boot and Best Player awards.[36]

Personal life

Ebecilio grew up supporting Feyenoord[4] and his cousins are fellow footballers Jeffrey Bruma and Marciano Bruma.[6]
