Marcus Younis (born 3 July 2005) is an Australian professional footballer who plays as a forward for A-League Men club Western Sydney Wanderers.
Club career
[edit]Raised in the suburbs of Western Sydney, Younis joined Western Sydney Wanderers at the age of 12, during which he faced recurring injuries for three years during his time.[1] At the age of 16, he was registered for the Wanderers' youth squad which played in the National Premier Leagues NSW (NPL NSW).[2]
Rewarded for his form with the youths, Younis made his A-League Men debut for the first-team on 15 January 2023, replacing Brandon Borrello in the 82nd-minute of a 1–1 draw against Melbourne City.[1] He signed his first professional contract through a two-year scholarship deal on 7 July 2023 with Western Sydney Wanderers.[3]
International career
[edit]In May 2023, Younis received his first international call-up for the Australia U18 side.[4] He made his debut as a substitute on 9 June, in a 4–2 loss to Portugal,[5] and scored his first goal for Australia in a 3–2 loss to England.[6]
On 25 September 2023, Younis was called up to Australia U20 side for friendlies against France, Netherlands and Denmark in Marbella, Spain.[7] However, two weeks later, Younis was pulled out of the squad due to injury, being replaced by Fabian Talladira from Adelaide United.[8]
Personal life
[edit]Younis has a younger sister, Talia, who plays for Western Sydney Wanderers in the A-League Women. His father, Ray, was a former National Soccer League player and currently works as the Wanderers' conditioning coach.[9] His uncle, Robert, was also a footballer who played for Adelaide United.[10]
