Club career

A winger, Yogane began his career in the Sheffield Wednesday Academy.[3] He progressed through the youth ranks and was offered a scholarship at the end of the 2021–22 season,[4] but he declined the offer and departed the club in August 2022.[3]

Brentford

On 10 August 2022, Yogane signed a pre-contract to become a professional with the B team at Premier League club Brentford,[3] for an undisclosed compensation fee.[5] He began his time with the club as a scholar and a three-year professional contract was triggered on 24 September 2022, his 17th birthday.[3] He made concurrent appearances for the U18 team during the 2022–23 and 2023–24 seasons.[6][7][8] Yogane made two first team friendly appearances during the 2023–24 pre-season and ended a "breakthrough" B team season with 29 appearances.[9][10][11]

Yogane was included in the first team squad for its 2024–25 pre-season training camp in Portugal and he made five pre and early-season friendly appearances.[12][13][14][15][16] Yogane won his maiden competitive first team call-up for an EFL Cup third round match versus Leyton Orient on 17 September 2024 and he made his debut as a substitute late in the 3–1 victory.[11]
