Socceroos Winger Gravi said Espn that he had to give up Newcastle United In the next transmission window to ensure football of the first team.
Kuol, who was born in the Egyptian refugee camp for the parents of South Sudan in 2004 before emigration to Australia, is currently playing for the Newcastle team under 21, scores eight goals and provides five assists in his last 11 games.
Signed for Premier League Club in 2022 and many fans expected a big thing from a teenager after he lit up A-League With a number of performances winning matches, earned praise from Barcelona Legend Xavi and played for Australia in 2022 World Cup.
But now 20, KUOL still has to play for the first team of Magpies and spent most of the time on the loan, first at Scottish Premiership page Heart follows Leaf in Dutch Eredivisia.
Kool, whose Treaty of Newcastle expires over a year, said he would try to ensure a departure from the club in the next window-to-loan window or permanent move-to ensure the first team minutes.
“The most important thing for me is to be able to play (senior) football … It won’t be so easy to jump from under 21 years in Newcastle to the first team group that could be in Champions League“ESPN said.
“I’m not quite sure for the summer what happens when it comes to my next step … but I would say (older) football is the final goal.”
Newcastle planned to send KUOL to a loan this season, with Eddie Howe, believed that the 20 -year -old needed to develop more than it is considered to be the Premier League group. These plans ended after Kool suffered injuries in Preseason, which excluded him for the first few months of the season and sent him for a year with the party of Newcastle under 21 years.
For the first time in his life, however, Kool plays 90 minutes practically every week, along with the occasional training with the first Newcastle team.
“It is probably a blessing in disguise (injury of preferences),” Kool said. “I managed to grow and work on things I have to work on as a player – my physical shape, my fitness.
“In the last few months I have probably played at most 90 minutes I played in my whole career, a back-to-back of a successive game, which is what every young player needs … I didn’t literally have a professional career.
“Now I’m able to run up and down for 90 minutes every week … I think I played less than five 90 -minute matches from 17 to 20 years. It’s crazy because that’s what young players need most: minutes and full games.”
While Kool is looking for a step to ensure the first team game time, it knows that it is not an immediate solution. His loan in hearts showed potential When he initially received minutes – although he was often played from a position – before the manager who signed him was released. Then he played only once; scoring the late equalizer against Guardianswhich helped the heart secure a place in UEFA Conference League Qualification round.
It was a similar situation in the combat Volendam, where Kuol started the season alongside it before it was released by the coaching staff in December. Then, He played only 32 minutes before the club was included.
Both experiences provided Kool’s control of the reality of the rise and fall of professional football.
“It’s a high -pressure environment. It showed me what real football looks like, and not everything is brilliant,” he said. “You come in and the manager who brought you, gets released and you have to walk around him to play.
“I missed the opportunities there and probably led the best I could when I had the opportunity. I probably missed the fitness and rhythm on the pitch to get up and down that I work on now.”
Despite the lack of game time, Kool said he felt very comfortable in both leagues and would be open to Eredivisia.
“I really enjoyed the football that played there, the style of football and a very tactical technical approach to the game. When I think of the league in terms of development, the Netherlands is very on my radar,” he said.
Kool has not been Socceroos for more than two years. While he would like to pull back on the green and gold jersey, he still has to talk to the new manager Tony Popovic.
“It is a great honor to represent Australia. But at the same time I understand that I have to perform at a high level so I can do it to do it,” he said. “I think what I do in the summer will be essential when it comes to finding the first team on which he will play, so I can be in the competition for Socceroos.”
Asked if he had some regrets about abandoning Australia at such a young age with very little experience, Kool said it was hard to say whether it was right or bad, but grew up as a footballer.
“I went on a loan,” Kool said. “I saw the reality of the Premier League footballer, the hard work they put, how physical they were, how they were fit.
“I think it was full of experience that you can’t buy.”
