It feels like local goalkeeper Noah James has been around the Club for an age, yet he’s still only 20-years-old and after spending a year on loan, he has returned with invaluable experience he plans to utilise this coming season. The Young Socceroos keeper left near beginning of the 2020/21 to take a loanee opportunity with the Western Sydney Wanderers where, although he did not feature on the A-League Men’s field, did spend almost every match on the substitute bench as back-up to Daniel Margush.
New Jets recruit Olivier Boumal has been in Australia and out of quarantine for just over two weeks now and is quickly finding his feet with his new club in what is his seventh nation to play football. The Cameroon-born winger has spent the majority of his career in Greece having started his youth football in France, before then making moves to Romania, China, Japan and even Georgia.
Newcastle Jets are pleased to welcome Port of Newcastle as the Major Partner for the A-League Women’s team, now enabling the Club to add to its squad.

Newcastle Jets are pleased to announce the signing of young goalkeeper Georgia Boric for the upcoming A-League Women’s Season. Boric has represented Australia as part of the Junior Matildas and has previously spent time as part of Canberra United but has yet to make her league debut. The 23-year-old is excited for the challenge. “The opportunity to compete for a position in the A-League Women’s competition is really exciting to me,” Boric said.
One of the more intriguing signings ahead of the A-League Mens 2021/22 campaign, is Beka Mikeltadze who joins the Jets from Greek outfit Xanthi FC. Despite his young age of 23, Beka has plied his trade all through Europe and has even represented the Georgian national team on multiple occasions. His arrival to Australia poses another challenge as he looks to take the next step in his career. This is Beka’s journey so far.

Newcastle Jets are pleased to announce defender Taren King has re-signed for the upcoming 2021/22 A-League Women’s Season.

Trading the parks of Newcastle for the stadiums of Europe... Tessa Tamplin, who spent her youth football developing through the ranks of the Newcastle Jets academy, has shown that the leap to playing amongst Europe’s best is achievable through sheer determination and hard work.

Since his arrival in July 2021, new Newcastle Jets Manager, Arthur Papas, has made an impact both on the training pitch, and behind the scenes. The former Yokahama F. Marinos coach has been tasked with reassembling almost the entire squad in preparation for the 2021/22 Men’s A-League season and in doing so, has made over a dozen new signings. While many are Australians who were either currently playing in the A-League, or once did before plying their trade overseas, four of those players are internationals, brand new to the competition.
