Adidas Malaysia sealed a one-year deal with 19-year-old rising footballing talent, Wan Kuzain Wan Kamal who currently plies his trade in the US with United Soccer League (USL) side Swope Park Rangers.
Born in the US to Malaysian parents, he joins a growing list of adidas – sponsored players under the age of 23 such as Akhyar Rashid, Syamer Kutty, Adam Nor Azlin, Muhammad Jafri, Adib Zainudin and Haziq Nadzli who have all featured for the senior team at club-level and the U-23 national side.
Wan Kuzain Wan Kamal will have access to adidas’ latest training and playing products as the company aims to boost the player’s career on the pitch and provide Kuzain with even better footballing experience.
A product of the Sporting Kansas City Academy, Kuzain began his career with Southern Illinois Futbol Club (SIFC – Force) before moving to join Saint Louis FC academy. He also featured in short training spells with famed Dutch football club, Feyenoord FC. Kuzain’s rapid progress and playing skills caught the eye of Sporting Kansas City officials and in July signed his first professional contract with their feeder team, Swope Park Rangers. He went on to make 12 appearances for the club.
With the option to represent either Malaysia or US still up in the air, Kuzain is nonetheless determined to focus on stepping up on his own individual game before donning the colours of whichever country he chooses to play for.
Kuzain, who is under contract with Swope Park Rangers for the 2018 season, has
returned to the US where he aims to help his team clinch a third successive Conference Championship after winning the 2016 and 2017 Western Conference to reach the USL Cup Final.
