Jerald Aquino (born 25 October 2004) is a Northern Mariana Islands international footballer who currently plays for Philippines Football League club Tuloy and the Northern Mariana Islands national team.[1]

Club career

[edit]

As a youth, Aquino played for Tan Holdings in the island's various junior divisions, including the under-18 league in 2019.[2] By 2021, he was competing in the Marianas Soccer League 1 with the NMI U18 national team, known as Teen Ayuyus.[3] That season, he was named as a member of the league All-Star team that would compete against the senior national team in the All-Star match.[4] The following season, he returned to Tan Holdings in the top division as the team went on to become champions of the Fall Season.[5] By 2023, Aquino had moved to Eleven Tiger FC. With the club, he won his second consecutive league championship and qualified for the inaugural Marianas Club Championship.[6] In the match, Eleven Tiger defeated Wings FC of Guam 2–1 to win the first-ever title.[7]

In 2023, Aquino joined Tuloy F.C. of the Philippines Football League. He had previously played against the club in a friendly match as a member of the under-18 national team as the squad trained in the Philippines in 2019 and trained jointly with the club in 2022.[8][9] He was joined at the club by international teammate Dev Bachani. However, when the 2024 Philippines Football League kicked off in April 2024, neither play was part of the matchday squad.[10]

International career

[edit]

As a youth, Aquino represented the Northern Mariana Islands in 2023 AFC U-20 Asian Cup qualification.[11] In preparation for the qualifying campaign, the team held a training camp in the Philippines.[9] Aquino was called up to the senior national team for the 2023 Pacific Games.[12] He made his senior debut in the competition on 18 November 2023 in the team's opening match against Fiji.[13]
