Oil-based polyurethane will do a lot of yellowing. You are better off going with a water-borne acrylic (many of which are sold as “water based polyurethane” — go figure). These are more water-white, some with a tinge of blue.
But weigh the cost of it not working and having to do it over and I'll be you will be convinced to just buy the right product the first time.
