NABBOUT DETERMINED TO EARN A SPOT AT THE WORLD CUP

The big names continue to arrive at the Socceroos camp in Turkey, with Premier League midfielder Aaron Mooy the latest to join the squad.
Mooy is one of several players, including Andrew Nabbout, who’ve used the A-League to launch a career overseas.
The former Jet is hoping to go from the Malaysian second division to the World Cup, in under two years.
“Some people may say he’s lucky and it’s good timing coming now but I’ve been working towards this for a long time.”
“There’s no room for error, so getting this far is only the beginning, there’s a long way to go and I’m going to grab that chance with both hands and go as hard as I can and not let it go.”
