    Dominic (Nico) Nazal
    DOB: October 6th, 2000

    Video highlights confirm his dual citizenship:


    Was the youngest player in the league at time of signing, according to the caption of the video above (self- or family- posted):

    In 2017 made history as the youngest professional player to play in the top-flight Philippines Football League (PFL) professional league at 16 years 7 months with Ilocos United Football Club. Also made history as the youngest player to start in the PFL.

    Has been called up for Philippine U19s, but couldn't confirm if he played in the tournament in July in Cambodia.

    Mostly a midfielder, but posted this back in November 2017:

    Making my 9th start of the season tonight for our final match, first time starting at fullback. Let's go, boys!


    And this tweet was how I found him... making an appearance on Cobra Kai?


    Not a ton I could find about his growing up, but he appears to be from Silver Spring, MD.

    @TheFalseNine -- Not sure why I put in YAA, but he has made his debut in the top league in the Philippines. He's YA material.

    I'm sure I did. My best guess is that I intended to move it but click on Academy as the destination. Either that or I'm screwing with you. Not sure which.
