Charles Lokolingoy joined the Hyundai A-League squad in September 2016 on a one year scholarship off the back of a phenomenal NPL 2 season, where the towering striker finished as the league’s top scorer with 27 goals in 28 games, including finals series. The 19 year old emigrated from the Democratic Republic of Congo aged 11, and represented the Sutherland Sharks before plying his trade under the tutelage of Sydney FC Hall of Fame Member Steve Corica and current Foxtel National Youth League Head Coach Rob Stanton. Lokolingoy’s performances have seen him called up to the Young Socceroos for recent friendlies, and the NPL 2 Golden Boot said he can’t wait to begin his maiden professional campaign.
