May a Mohel who was mekabelaccepted Shabbos early do a bris oncircumcise a child who turned 8 days old on Friday?

Since the dinrule that a bris is Docheh Shabboscircumcision pushes off Shabbos is learned from the pasuk וביום השמיני ימול בשר ערלתוverse וביום השמיני ימול בשר ערלתו, ויקרא יב ג, from which the chaz"l make a drosho "ביום השמיני אפילו בשבת"expound "ביום השמיני אפילו בשבת", (שבת קלב ע"א), therefore a bris iscircumcision only dochehpushes off shabbos if it is "Bayom Hashmini""Bayom Hashmini". Simply, this means, that Shabbos is the 8th day. If a baby was born on Friday, then the Yom Hashmini, the 8th day, would on the following Friday.

May a Mohel who was Mekabel shabbos early do a bris on a child who turned 8 days old on Friday? or May a Mohel who accepted shabbos early do we only say that a bris may be doneon a child who turned 8 days old on Friday? Does that qualify under the rule of 8th day even on Shabbos only if(since it is now still actually the "Yom Hashmini"8th day), or perhaps not since the eighth day is Friday and not the day of the week called Saturday/Shabbos even if the Mohel accepted the holiness of the holiday of Shabbos asearly? Perhaps it would seem frombe different if the drosho ofMohel is the pasuk?father who is personally obligated here?
