Adam Ozeri (born March 7, 1998) is an American professional soccer player who plays as an attacking midfielder for Patriotas Boyacá of the Colombian Categoría Primera A.[3]

Club career

Ozeri started his youth career in his homeland with Manhattan Kickers, before switching to TSF Academy soon after.[4] Ozeri would eventually head to Spain with Cornellà, notably finishing as top goalscorer in 2014 for the U15s of the Catalonia-based club.[2] After leaving Cornellà, Ozeri headed to Argentina with Racing Club.[2] After time in their youth, he moved over to Banfield's system.[2][5] In mid-2016, Ozeri was signed by Peru's Alianza Lima; though would see no senior action.[6][7][8] In 2017, Ozeri sealed a return to Argentina with Ferro Carril Oeste.[9] February 2019 saw Ozeri depart on loan to Brazilian Série D outfit Boavista.[10][11]

After featuring four times, including twice against Gaúcho, for Boavista, Ozeri went back to Ferro Carril Oeste ahead of the 2019–20 campaign in Primera B Nacional.[3] His first appearance subsequently arrived, as he played the full duration of a 2–1 defeat away to Estudiantes on September 13.[3][12] In 2020, Ozeri joined Orlando City B on loan, making 12 appearances for the team in USL League One.

In February 2021, Ozeri joined Patriotas.[13]

International career

2014 saw Ozeri participate in training camps with both Israel and the United States at youth level.[4] In August 2016, Ozeri was called up to the latter's U19s by Brad Friedel for the subsequent month's Stevan Vilotic Tournament in Subotica, Serbia.[14] He also made Friedel's squad for a training camp in the succeeding November.[15]
