Nicholas Alberto "Nick" Carle (born 23 November 1981 in Sydney, Australia) is an Australian football (soccer) player who currently plays as an attacking midfielder for Sydney FC.[2][3]

Club career

As a junior, Carle won five national futsal titles. During his days as a teenage schoolboy, he played football for his high school, Patrician Brothers' College, Fairfield. He helped his school win the Bill Turner Cup competition in 1996.

Carle began his career as a 15 year old at Sydney Olympic in the NSL, making his NSL debut on 5 October 1997. After coming on as a substitute in the 75th minute, he scored an injury time winner against Marconi Stallions.[4] He had a brief stint at French club Troyes before returning to Australia with Marconi Stallions and Ryde City Gunners.

Newcastle Jets

When the A-League was formed in 2005 Carle joined the Newcastle Jets. He played for the Jets in the first two seasons of the A-League and was popular with the Jets fans. Carle played as an attacking midfielder during his time at the Newcastle Jets.

In February 2007 Carle won the prestigious Johnny Warren Medal for the players' player of the year for his performance throughout the A-League 2006–07 season, beating Melbourne Victory's Daniel Allsopp, Archie Thompson and Kevin Muscat.[5] Carle also won the goal of the year award for his 70-metre run followed by a strike from 20 metres with the outside of his left boot, which proved to be the winning goal in the Round 10 clash against Adelaide United (Adelaide had only seconds earlier missed a penalty to win the match) and was arguably the catalyst for turning around the Jet's poor season up until that point. He was also named 'A-League Player of the Year' on Australian football site pintculture.com, beating Melbourne Victory player Kevin Muscat by one vote.[6]

Gençlerbirliği SK

At the end of the 2006–07 season Carle expressed his concern that the A-League season was not long enough. He felt that playing more games would improve his chances of selection for the national team and said that offers from Europe would be tempting.[citation needed] Despite being initially linked with Fenerbahçe in the media, Carle eventually signed with Socceroo Josip Skoko's former club Gençlerbirliği.[7] The Turkcell Super League club paid a transfer fee of about $650,000 for Carle, with the Newcastle Jets also receiving a percentage of any further transfer fees should Carle be sold by the Turkish club. The Newcastle Jets received a total of $800,000 for Carle after his transfer to Bristol City.[8]

Bristol City F.C.

In early January 2008 Carle transferred to Football League Championship side Bristol City for an undisclosed fee after impressing against Nigeria in an international friendly.[3][9] He signed a contract for three and a half years,[10] helping[citation needed] the Robins to the play-offs where they were beaten in the final at Wembley Stadium. Carle made the move because he was unhappy at Gençlerbirliği, especially because he was not able to see his family enough.[11][12]

Crystal Palace

Carle's stay at Ashton Gate was short-lived however, moving to Crystal Palace for £1m less than six months later. Carle was unable to command a regular first team place under either Neil Warnock or Paul Hart and in May 2010, Palace released him with two years remaining on his contract.

Sydney FC

Carle signed with Sydney FC in May 2010 for a reported A$1.95m over three years.[13]

In his first season, Nick struggled with form and injuries in a season to forget, as Sydney slumped to 3rd last on the table. Carle scored a goal against Adelaide United to seal a win for Sydney, their first of the season, on 22 October 2011. His performances to date have suggested much better form and consistency compared with recent seasons.

International career

Carle began his international career playing for Australia at under-17 level before representing Australia at the under-20s 2001 FIFA World Youth Championship. He also later played for the under-23s but missed out on selection for the 2004 Olympics in Athens.

He earned his first senior cap against Venezuela in 2004 coming on as a substitute in the 84th minute replacing David Zdrilic. However it was his only appearance for the senior national team for three years. Carle regularly missed selection under Frank Farina and did not feature at all under Guus Hiddink. Carle's form for Jets in the 2006–07 A-League season saw calls for new coach Graham Arnold to bring him back into the national team.[citation needed] Carle ended three years in exile from the national squad by coming on as a substitute in a friendly against China in March 2007, and also made an appearance against Uruguay in June.

Graham Arnold selected Carle in the Australian squad for the 2007 AFC Asian Cup. He made an appearance as a substitute during Australia's match against Japan, scoring in the penalty shoot out.

Carle made his first starting appearance for the Socceroos against Nigeria at Craven Cottage, London on 18 November 2007. He put in a strong performance along with fellow former A-League player David Carney.[14] Under national coach Pim Verbeek, Carle's opportunities were limited and although he made the initial 30-man squad for the finals tournament in South Africa, he was subsequently omitted from the touring party.[15]
