Izzat Bijan Yarbabaev '24 Recruiting Profile

Hello coaches, my name is Izzat Bijan Yarbabaev. I am an outside back/forward. Playing as an outside back is the position that comes second nature to me. I have the capabilities to run up and down the field because of my physical endurance and versatility playing offense and defense. My 1 v 1 defending and communication is one of my attributes as a defender. As an attacker I have the capabilities to take players 1 on 1 due to the help of my athleticism and skills. I also have the clinical technique to put shots on frame. I am also a big believer in playing things simple to take control of the game. Aside from that, I have also had the privilege to go on trial for the USL league 1 club Union Omaha in Omaha, Nebraska. Speaking of Omaha, I played for a club called Sporting Nebraska which is an affiliate of Sporting Kansas. I have also had the experience of playing pickup games with former and current professional players that have helped me grow as a player. As a teammate and player, I consider myself coachable and likable. Although I do have leadership qualities, I am a very cooperative person with my coaches and teammates.
