Overview
Okezie Chibuike Coby Ebere, born 17 September 2005 in Germany of Nigerian descent, spent a decade in Everton’s academy from age 11. In July 2026 he signed a three-year deal at Čukarički — Serbian media called it one of the summer’s loudest signings (Hotsport/Tanjug).
Everton U21 total: 33 games, 2 goals, 3 assists; the real production spike came at U18: 20 goals in 38 games in 2023-24. His Superliga debut came on 19 July against IMT (45 minutes).
The profile description is ToffeeWeb-sourced: “Quick, strong, technically capable; mostly an inverted left winger who can lead the line with his physicality.” FotMob percentiles agree: 81st in aerials, 64th in defensive contribution.

Assessment
| Strengths | Development Areas |
|---|---|
| 1.87 m frame + winger pace — rare combination | Output dropped at U21 (2 goals in 33) |
| Ten years of Everton academy schooling | Professional sample of 45 minutes |
| Winger + striker dual role | No international record (Germany/Nigeria/England eligible) |
Verdict
The gap between U18 production and U21 stagnation awaits professional football's answer; the physique-pace combination makes tracking mandatory.
800+ minutes with goal contributions in H1 revalues the file fast — potentially the next candidate of Čukarički's selling model.
