Career

Kyerewaa joined Schalke 04 II from Fortuna Düsseldorf's youth in summer 2020.[3] In his first season with Schalke 04's reserves he was a regular starter making 11 appearances scoring twice while also being kept out of action for five months due to a shoulder injury.[3] He received his first call-up to the first team squad by manager Mike Büskens for a 2. Bundesliga match against Hannover 96 in March 2022, which Schalke 04 won 2–1.[3] He received a second call-up for a match against Dynamo Dresden.[4]

On 22 July 2025, EFL League One club Reading announced the signing of Kyerewaa to a two-year contract, after he had left Preußen Münster earlier in the summer.[7]
