Early life

Ecrepont was born in Scotland in 2002. He attended Alloway Primary School and had plans to play as a left back.[4]

Club career

Ayr United

Ecrepont joined Ayr United at the age of 9, swiftly moving through the under-17, under-20 and under-21 teams. On 1 July 2018, he signed a senior three-year contract. As well as playing for Ayr's youth teams he said that he often does a few shifts at Cafe Ginger which his dad Eddy runs.[4] At first, Ecrepont struggled to find a school that would accept him because of his footballing duties as he was training four mornings a week after signing a new contract but Ayr Academy let him in.[4]

Ecrepont made his debut, coming off the bench against Dundee Utd in the Scottish Championship on 30 November 2018.[5]

On 26 January 2023, Ecrepont joined Scottish League Two club Stranraer on loan until the end of the season.[6]

On 25 July 2017 aged just 14, Ecrepont made his Scotland under-16 debut in a 7–0 thrashing of Qatar.[7] He went on to gain 9 caps and score 1 goal at that level.[2]

On 19 August 2018 August, Ecrepont made his debut for the under-17s in a 1–0 win over Russia.[8]
