Credit to both @ChuckMe92 & @Dave Marino-Nachison for being the first (I think?) to identifying Wyparlo. Can confirm he is American and he’s been with the first team of his club all this preseason. From @ChuckMe92 “Transfermarkt and multiple other databases list a September '03 named Michael Wyparlo as born in New York. He has recently been listed with the first team of Stal Mielec in Poland and apparently was the top scorer for one of their youth teams in the fall. Some databases refer to him as a central midfielder, but he is likely a striker/winger based on # and match action photos. Two databases list him at 1.90 meters (about 6-2 or 6-3). His father seems to be former Poland international keeper Boguslaw Wyparlo. He posted US/Poland dual flag emojis in a recent Instagram post. I'll post about this in the Detective Work thread, but he is most likely US-eligible.” https://www.transfermarkt.us/michael-wyparlo/profil/spieler/858521 From @Dave Marino-Nachison, “The usually reliable site 90minut says Stal Mielec's '03 Michael Wyparlo was born in New York. http://stalmielec.com/i-zespol/ So does T'Markt. https://www.transfermarkt.de/michael-wyparlo/profil/spieler/858521 I haven't seen it reported anywhere, and some database sites say he was born in Poland, so I'm not really sure. He appears to be the son of Stal's GK coach Bogusław Wyparło, who had a long pro career in Poland and a few cups of coffee (and caps) with their MNT. He was playing in Poland around the time, if not at the specific time, that Michael was born. https://nowiny24.pl/jaki-ojciec-tak...-ich-slady-zdjecia/ga/c2-15037826/zd/43927554 This full article (in Polish) is paywalled, but the snippet at the top, translated by Google, tells a brief tale about how, it appears, Michael once told his dad to buzz off with the soccer advice, because he was a GK, so what would he know? Kids today, man!” https://www.przegladsportowy.pl/pil...straklasie-bodzio-w-i-klubie-z-mielca/ew88wvx
League debut yesterday in the Polish top division for 6-foot-3 CM/CB Michael Wyparlo, an '03 who was born in New York according to multiple sources. https://t.co/WyhTqzex5P— ChuckMe92 Soccer (@ChuckMe92Soccer) December 4, 2021 Wyparlo is the 13th-youngest player to play in the Ekstraklasa this season.He is the son of former Poland senior international Boguslaw Wyparlo, so easier said than done to get him in a USYNT camp. But he seems to be worth scouting.— ChuckMe92 Soccer (@ChuckMe92Soccer) December 4, 2021
Confirmation of birth place: Can confirm, I was born in New York 🇺🇲— Michael Wyparło 🇺🇸🇵🇱 (@MichaelWyparlo) December 5, 2021
Was just coming here to confirm this -- but I'm glad he did! (American-born, to two Polish parents, for the record.)
In this article the club states he was born in the US, just for further confirmation. https://stalmielec.com/michael-wypa...i-do-glowy-tylko-jedno-slowo-szczescie-wideo/

Michael Wyparło (Wyparlo) should work. Most of us don't have a Polish keyboard installed. Thanks.
