In six short months the Australian has progressed from a fringe youth player at Central Coast to the English Premier League.

In Newcastle, he is not the golden child or the next big thing, rather just one of numerous young and talented prospects from all over the world pushing for a chance which might never come. This makes his landing spot key: regular football and an environment in which both his strengths and weaknesses are addressed, along with a patience critical to his progression. The announcement caps off a whirlwind six-month rise for Kuol, during which he has progressed from a fringe youth prospect at the Mariners seeking to follow in the footsteps of his older brother Alou, to the darling of the A-Leagues and a potential World Cup bolter. At 17, he was among the A-League Men’s leaders in dribbles and entrances into the opposition penalty area when adjusted for his limited minutes. To date, he has four goals and an assist in seven appearances off the bench. Signing a contract that, according to reports, will make the 18-year-old one of Australia’s highest-paid footballers, the attacker will complete his move to the English Premier League when the transfer window opens in January.
