James Troisi

Newcastle United

He was on the fringes of Newcastle's senior side for the 2007–08 Premier League season and showed promising signs in pre-season friendlies, including getting two assists against Hartlepool United. In January 2008, Troisi had a two match trial with Dutch Eredivisie club, Roda JC. Roda wanted to sign him on a permanent basis, but negotiations broke down as Troisi was a product of Newcastle's youth development and still under 23 years of age, so Newcastle would have required a compensation fee. On 6 May 2008, it was announced that Troisi would leave Newcastle United after the end of the 2007–08 season.

Kayserispor

On 24 January, Troisi put mid-table Kayserispor to the sword with his first career hat-trick scoring all of Genclerbirligi goals in a 3–1 win. In July 2009, he joined Kayserispor on a four-year contract.

In 2013, Norwich City manager Chris Hughton confirmed in a press conference that the club had made an enquiry into his…

U23

After a successful 2006–07 season with the Newcastle reserve side, Troisi made his debut for the Australia U23 team (the "Olyroos"), on 18 April 2007 against Saudi Arabia in an Olympic qualifier. He followed up a good performance against the Saudis with a goal in the all-important clash with Iran in his hometown of Adelaide.

Senior

Troisi made his full international debut for Australia in a goalless friendly against Singapore on 22 March 2008, playing in left midfield. Ange Postecoglou included Troisi in the Australia squad for the 2014 FIFA World Cup. Troisi was named as part of Australia's 2015 AFC Asian Cup squad. He started Australia's first match of the tournament against Kuwait, scoring Australia's fourth and final goal of the match in the 92nd minute of the match, helping Australia to a 4–1 win. Troisi played for Australia in the 2015 AFC Asian Cup Final against South Korea, coming on as a second-half substitute for Robbie Kruse. He scored Australia's second goal of the match in the first period of extra time, the winning goal of the Asian Cup Final. He was selected in Australia's squad for the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup. He scored against Chile, and was awarded FIFA Man of the Match. In May 2018, he was named in Australia's preliminary 26-man squad for the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
