Marko Stamenic

Marko Stamenić is the kind of footballer whose journey interests me as much as his game. Born in Wellington in 2002 and raised in Stokes Valley, he came up through the Olé Football Academy, signed for FC Copenhagen as a teenager after extended trials, and now plies his trade with Swansea City in England. New Zealand is not a footballing superpower, which makes his persistence in prising open European doors genuinely impressive. As a midfielder with Serbian heritage, he does the connective, two-way work I admire most. I see real upside in a player carrying a small nation's hopes, and I am keen to see how high he climbs.
