REPRESENTING ISRAEL
His mother's side of his family are Jewish. "My [club] manager asked if I was Jewish, and I said 'Yeah, how did you know?' He then told me that Jerry Weinstein, the manager of the Israeli national team, contacted him to see if I'd be interested in playing for the qualifiers. I said yes right away because I knew this was an opportunity I couldn't pass up and it would open many doors for me." He received Israeli citizenship on his first trip to Israel in 2019.
