Marvin Ekpiteta, an English-born footballer who hails from the marker calendar date of 26 August 1995, putting him at 29 years of age, serves as a wall of defence, primarily in the central position, for the Scottish club Hibernian. Ekpiteta towers at a height of 6ft 3in or 1.93m in the esteemed metric system. Keeping him grounded at such a lofty height is his weight of 13st 5lb, equivalent to 85kg in metric. His jersey of choice, or perhaps bestowed upon him by the powers-that-be, is decorated with the number 4.
In terms of his career trajectory, Ekpiteta’s journey saw him transported in January 2018 from East Thurrock, housed in the National League South of England, to Leyton Orient, a contender in England's League One, for a fee cloaked in secrecy.
A couple of years later, in the sunny season of July 2020, a second tranfer ferried Ekpiteta from Leyton Orient to the fellow League One competitor, Blackpool. His debut year of 2021 to 2022 at Blackpool brought about a flurry of activity with Ekpiteta gracing the pitch in his first-team colours for a total of 40 league matches and topping it off with a tally of five goals to his name. The following season of 2022 to 2023, although with a somewhat reduced presence of 25 first-team league appearances, still saw Ekpiteta weave into the net a singular goal.
As the whirling wheel of time brought forth July 2024, Ekpiteta once again found himself on the move. This time, the transfer winds blew north, transporting him from Blackpool and the familiar grounds of England's League One to venture into the uncharted terrain of the Scottish Premiership with Hibernian. From the recent records of the ongoing season (2024 - 2025 ), Ekpiteta has already been seen dominating the field in seven first-team league bouts.
Furthermore, Ekpiteta made his mark in the League Cup 2024 - 2025 for Hibernian, where he augmented their offensive manoeuvres by scoring a noteworthy goal in his four starts under the club's banner.
