Another future tug-of-war for selection choice coming up? 🤔🇮🇹🇦🇺

16-year-old Gianluca Okon-Engstler, one of the sons of former Socceroos international Paul Okon, has been getting plenty of minutes in the UEFA Youth League for his Club Brugge K.V. side in Belgium 🇧🇪🔵⚫️

The midfielder has featured three times in the UEFA Youth League and was part of Club Brugge's impressive wins over Olympiakos, Bayern Munich and FC Barcelona. The club remain unbeaten in the 2025/26 edition of the Youth League so far and sit ahead of sides like Inter Milan and Liverpool.

Born in Australia, Okon-Engstler has already represented Australia and Italy at a youth level and has played for both countries in this year alone. Most recently, he featured for Italy's U-17's team in friendly matches.

"He has a very good physical profile" 🗣️🇦🇺

Ahead of the November matches against Venezuela and Colombia, Socceroos manager Tony Popovic has called up a squad with several new faces. One of them is Wisła Płock striker Deni Juric who has had a fantastic season across the Slovenian, Polish and UEFA Conference leagues.

In his press conference before the matches, Popovic spoke about Juric and why he called him up in the November window: 👇

"He was playing in Slovenia and we watched him there," he said.

"The level of the [Slovenian] league is quite low, so it's very hard to judge. We've watched him now since he's gone to Poland. He looks quicker, more powerful, definitely looks fitter.

"He's scoring and assisting goals, he's in a team that's challenging for the title at the moment. It's maybe not a league that everyone sees regularly, so they're not aware of how he's playing, but he deserves this opportunity."

A-League Women's - last position 🚫

It has been a very tough start to the A-Leagues season for the Western Sydney Wanderers across their men's and women's squads 🔴⚫️

After four matches, the men's side remain winless and pressure is building on current manager Alen Stajcic. Up next for Staj and his side are two home matches against NSW opposition - the Central Coast Mariners and crosstown rivals Sydney FC.

In the women's side, the Wanderers have conceded seven goals in their opening two matches of the season and up next on the fixture list is an away trip against the high-flying Brisbane Roar.

New club, few minutes 😬

After initially a good move on paper in the off-season, Australia international Marco Tilio has struggled for minutes in the Austrian Bundesliga 🇦🇹🇦🇺

The 24-year-old joined Rapid Wien in August and at first, the move to the Austrian top flight looked promising after strong performances in the A-League Men's competition. However, he hasn't solidified himself as a starter as the midway point of the season draws close.

His last six squad appearances for Rapid Wien across the Austrian Bundesliga and UEFA Conference League: 👇

0-2L vs LASK - 12 minutes
0-3L vs Fiorentina - Bench 🚫
2-0W vs Ried - Bench 🚫
2-1W vs Sturm Graz - 12 minutes
0-1L vs Universitatea Craiova - Bench 🚫
1-1D vs WSG Tirol - Bench 🚫

First start of the season and plenty of praise from the fans 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇦🇺👏

Australia international Riley McGree made his first start of the season for his Middlesbrough FC side yesterday and played a vital role in their 2-1 win over Birmingham City 🔴⚪️

The 27-year-old attacker had been suffering from injuries for a lengthy period and didn't play his first minutes of the season until the 1st of November. Yesterday's win was his first start since the 1st of January and he returned in style, playing 61 minutes with plenty of positive feedback from the Boro locals.

The win sees Middlesbrough sit in second position on the Championship ladder. Australia international Sam Silvera also featured in Boro's win and played 64 minutes.

A breakthrough season comes to an end for an Aussie in the Major League Soccer (MLS) 🤝🇺🇸🇦🇺

Earlier today, Australian midfielder Patrick Yazbek and his Nashville SC side's season came to a close as they were eliminated from the MLS playoffs against Inter Miami.

Overall, the 23-year-old midfielder had an amazing season in this year's Major League Soccer campaign as he featured in the majority of Nashville's matches and also was part of club and state history. The Socceroo wrote history for the state as Nashville SC lifted the US Open Cup and became the first Tennessee professional team from any sport to win a trophy ⚫️🟡🏆

The Australia international featured in 40 matches across the MLS, MLS playoffs and US Open Cup with an average of 65 playing minutes per match. In addition, due to their US Open Cup success, Yazbek and Nashville are set to feature in the upcoming 2026 CONCACAF Champions Cup.

Five wins in a row as Socceroos clash against each other in the Championship ⚪️⚫️

Earlier today, it was Australian defender Callum Elder who helped his Derby County side earn three points over fellow Australian Lewis Miller and Blackburn Rovers 🐏

Elder recorded an assist for the Rams as his corner delivery resulted in Derby's first goal of the match. For Derby County, it's now their fifth consecutive win in the English second tier as they climb to 10th position on the competition ladder. For Blackburn Rovers, Lewis Miller played the entire match in the loss.

It's been a fantastic few days for Elder who recently was called up for the latest Socceroos squad to take on Venezuela and Colombia in the US.

Australia's future number nine? 👀⏳

Melbourne City FC's Max Caputo is having a fantastic start to the 2025/26 season across the A-Leagues Men's and AFC Champions League Elite competitions 🔵⚪️

The 20-year-old has scored four goals in four A-League Men's matches this season including a goal in the Melbourne Derby. Approximately three weeks ago, the Melbourne-born forward he scored the winner for City in their 2-1 win over Thai giants Buriram United in the Asian Champions League Elite competition.

Gaining experience in both domestic and international at a young age is proving very beneficial for Caputo as he looks to help City dominate the league and qualify for the next stage of ACL Elite football.
