American GK Samnik, an '00 from Georgia, has joined first-division FC Politehnica Iași. https://www.politehnicaiasi.ro/stir...ni-si-207-metri-a-semnat-cu-poli#.XMoNOTBKjGg The club's announcement, linked above, says he was recommended by Liță Dumitru, who is associated with Samnik's youth club, Kalonji Soccer Academy, and has a pretty good resume to his name. The dream is now a reality🖋⚽️ pic.twitter.com/iAtsTNsWSE— Jacob Samnik (@samnikjacob) April 11, 2019 He is tall. That led to some internet funmaking. http://www.espn.com/soccer/blog/the...o-tall-for-signing-photo-by-new-romanian-club
Jacob Samnik Date of Birth (Age): Nov 28, 2000 (18) Place of Birth: United States Atlanta, Georgia Not sure how we missed this story when it first came out: http://www.espn.com/soccer/blog/the...o-tall-for-signing-photo-by-new-romanian-club The 18-year-old American is a product of the Kalonji Soccer Academy in Georgia, from whom Politehnica have landed him on a two-year contract. But as well as being a decent young keeper, Samnik is also notable for standing at 2.07 metres tall -- that's approximately 6-foot-8, an inch taller than Peter Crouch. 18 y/o keeper Jacob Samnik and FC Politehnica Iași took 4th at the U19s final in Romania last week.The Georgia native also made the game-day 18 for Politehnica's first team for the final 2 matches of the season.#USMNT https://t.co/P9xlRNLzjA pic.twitter.com/p0eFVzRUW3— Sams Mini Army (@samsminiarmy) June 2, 2019 Transfermarkt profile: https://www.transfermarkt.us/jacob-samnik/profil/spieler/646122

I put this one in main YA, perhaps incorrectly... https://www.bigsoccer.com/threads/jacob-samnik-at-poli.2103540/
Has moved to Hobro, because "America." 1189543605184159744 is not a valid tweet id http://hikfodbold.dk/amerikansk-maalmand-til-hobro-ik-n2-2446?id=2446 There are four Americans already in Hobro IK's 3F Super League squad, and now another is added. Thus, a three-year agreement has been made with 18-year-old American goalkeeper Jacob Samnik, who will become the fifth American in Hobro IK.
This may be his brother who spent time as a GK at Temple. https://owlsports.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=10735 His brother is only a shrimpy 6'5".
23-yo Michael Samnik is now on trial at Viborg FF ... but are they in fact related ? https://beta.bold.dk/fodbold/nyheder/viborg-har-besoeg-af-amerikansk-maalmand http://www.umobilerams.com/sport/mens-soccer/2019-20/roster/michael-samnik https://www.transfermarkt.com/jacob-samnik/profil/spieler/646122
Jacob Samnik, who signed a 3-year contract with Hobro back in october 2019 may now finally get to play some first team games now that Hobro is relegated and 1st keeper Jesper Rask now has retired. Jacob Samnik is btw the half-brother of his team-mate Louicius Don Deedson according to both the official Hobro IK and transfermarkt websites https://www.transfermarkt.com/jacob-samnik/profil/spieler/646122 http://hikfodbold.dk/amerikansk-maalmand-til-hobro-ik-n2-2446?id=2446 https://nordjyske.dk/nyheder/sport/...erikaner/739e20b4-db90-45a7-a031-3fd606ffe7ff
