The 20-year-old defender came through the youth ranks at Leeds United, making two appearances for their first team during the 2024-2025 season.
After leaving Leeds in the summer of 2025, Debayo signed for Hull in January playing for their under-21s side and featuring in two first-team matchday squads.
“I’m just grateful to the manager (Ian Holloway) for bringing me in, and hopefully I can repay his trust,” Debayo told Swindon’s website., external
“I’m really excited to get my first taste of men’s football, and I just want to kick on from here and hopefully put in some good performances.”
He becomes the Robins’ fourth summer signing after deals for midfielder Matty Virtue, centre-back Stephan Negru, and fellow defender Mitch Clark.
