Adam Pavlesic (born 30 July 2002) is an Australian professional soccer player who most recently played as a goalkeeper for Sydney FC.[1]
Career[edit]
In December 2019, 17-year-old Pavlesic was granted permission by Sydney to travel to Europe following invitations from Italian side AS Roma and French side RC Strasbourg to train with their academies. The offers came on the back of the youngsters performances for the Joeys in their 2019 FIFA U-17 World Cup campaign.[2]
On 26 November 2020, he made his professional debut for Sydney in the club's 2020 AFC Champions League 1–0 loss against Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors.[3][4]
On 2 April 2022, Pavlesic made his A-League debut during Round 21 of the 2021–22 season against Western Sydney in the Sydney Derby, which Sydney won 3–2.[5]
On 9 December 2023, Pavlesic returned to first-team action with Sydney, after more than 20 months since his last appearance for the Sky Blues, in the club's 2–0 loss at home against Macarthur. The 21-year-old replaced forward Patrick Wood following a 15th minute red card for first choice goalkeeper Andrew Redmayne, who was judged to have committed a handball offence.[6]
With Redmayne suspended for a game, Pavlesic was chosen to start for Sydney in their 3–0 away loss against Melbourne Victory on 16 December.[7] He returned to the bench following Redmayne's return from suspension.[8]
Personal life[edit]
Pavlesic's brother, Anthony is a goalkeeper for Bayern Munich.[9] Pavlesic is of Croatian descent.[10]
