Garang Kuol's elite football journey at club level has begun, watching his high-flying Newcastle United teammates tackle Arsenal in the English Premier League.
While the clash at the Emirates Stadium finished goalless on Tuesday night, the Socceroos young gun, 18, would have quickly seen the standard required if he is to succeed abroad.
The teenager took to Instagram to show he was a spectator in London, as the Gunners extended their lead in the EPL to eight points ahead of Manchester City.
Kuol flew in from Australia buoyed by the news he had secured a coveted UK work permit - which will more than likely mean he won't have to go on loan to the likes of Portugal or France.
