Austin Jake Ayoubi (born 27 July 2001) is an Australian professional soccer player who plays as a winger for Adelaide United in the A-League Men.
Club career
Semi-professional career
Ayoubi began his career with semi-professional club Adelaide City in the National Premier Leagues South Australia (NPL SA), before moving to Cyprus to join Othellos Athienou in the Second Division in September 2020.[1] Ayoubi returned to Adelaide City in July 2021, after a nine-month spell abroad.[2]
In 2022, Ayoubi signed with newly-promoted West Torrens Birkalla, also competing in the NPL SA, who were relegated to State League 1 at the end of the season.[3] He departed the club at the end of the 2022 season and joined fellow-NPL SA side MetroStars for the 2023 season.[4] His performances throughout the season earned him selection in the NPL SA Team of the Year.[5]
Adelaide United
Following a breakout season at NPL level, Ayoubi signed his first professional contract on 20 November 2023 with Adelaide United in the A-League Men, after a successful trial.[6] He made seven first-team appearances during his debut professional season and was subsequently offered a two-year contract extension in June 2024.[7]
Durning the 2024–25 pre-season, Ayoubi drew attention for his performances in the 2024 Australia Cup and was regarded as a player likely to have a breakout season.[8] He scored his first goal for Adelaide United against Western Sydney Wanderers in a 3–2 Cup win, which helped the team reach the semi-final.[9] He then recorded his first A-League Men goal against the same opponent on 2 November in a 4–3 away victory.[10]
Personal life
Ayoubi's father, Amin, is the chairman of West Torrens Birkalla.[3]
