Joshua Yorwerth (born 28 February 1995) is a Welsh professional footballer who plays for Southern League Premier South side Merthyr Town. He began his career as a youth player with Cardiff City, joining the club at the age of 13. He spent time on loan with Hereford United during the club's final months before folding due to financial problems. In 2015, he signed for Ipswich Town where he made his professional debut in the EFL Cup.
After spending several months on loan with Crawley Town, he joined the club on a permanent basis in 2016. He spent time on loan with Merthyr Town before establishing himself in the first team, making 91 appearances in all competitions. He joined Peterborough United in 2018 but was sacked by the club eight months later after evading an anti-doping test and admitting to cocaine use. He received a four-year ban from The Football Association in February 2019, the longest doping-related ban ever sanctioned in English professional football. At international level, he has represented Wales at several youth levels.
