There's this chap, goes by the name of Nick Suman. Born on a fine summer's day, 28th February 2000, over in the land of kangaroos. He's 25 now and earns his crust between the sticks for Aberdeen, not exactly following the well-worn path of Celtic legends, but who am I to judge?
At a towering 6ft 5in (1.97m for those of you who prefer the continent's measurements) and tipping the scales at 13st 9lb (that's 87kg to the metrically-minded), he's certainly got the stature for the role. Shows a flair for the dramatic, too, seeing as he's taken number 13 for his Aberdeen jersey.
Nick cut his teeth in the game with Western Sydney Wanderers, a humble trainee back in July 2015. First team opportunities were somewhat sporadic though. His debut season of 2018-2019 was the pinnacle of his Wanderer career, making four appearances in league matches. Regrettably, his following season only gifted him a solitary appearance.
In August 2020, Suman thought it best to shuffle along to Macarthur FC, also in the A-League. Between the 2021 and 2023 seasons, he stepped up to the plate for them a grand total of six times. Couldn't resist the allure of our bonny land and made the jump to Cove Rangers in Scotland's League One in July 2023.
The lad apparently had aspirations beyond League One and made his way up to the Scottish Premiership with Aberdeen in July 2025. Stunningly, in the current season (2025-2026), he has yet to step onto the pitch for a minute of league play. One might begin to wonder whether his shooting gloves are solely for display purposes.
