Cyprus U19 NT midfielder Konstantinos Marneros will be joining the University of Memphis in Spring 2023. Marneros who made his top division debut for AEL Limassol aged 16, has been ever-present in the Cyprus Youth National team set-up from U14 to U19 level.
Marneros will be joining a Memphis team that had a very strong season. The Memphis Tigers finished the season ranked in the top 40 programs in NCAA Division 1, qualifying for the national tournament where they lost to Saint Louis in extra time.
Konstantinos has an incredibly high soccer pedigree playing in the first team of AEL and the U17/19 National teams for Cyprus. He is a dynamic central midfielder who can play box to box or as a defensive midfielder depending on the need. He has the ability to get up and down the field as well as a willingness to get into challenges which should make a great pairing for players around him - Memphis Head Coach Richard Mulrooney
Since 2014 the team is lead by head coach, Richard Mulrooney. Mulrooney enjoyed a stellar playing career in the MLS where he was named an All-Star in 2006. He also represented the USA Men's National Team, fourteen times from 2001 to 2004.
