Noa Lang (born 17 June 1999) is a Dutch professional footballer, who plays as winger for Club Brugge in the Belgian Pro League, on loan from Ajax.[1][2]

Club career

Ajax

On 1 December 2019, Lang became the first Ajax player to score a hat-trick on his first league start in 60 years as Ajax came from two goals down to beat FC Twente 5–2.[3] Later that month, Lang scored his first goal in the KNVB Cup for Ajax, netting the opening goal in a 3–4 away win over Telstar in the second round.[4]

Twente (loan)

In January 2020, following Ajax's signing of Ryan Babel in Lang's position, he was loaned out to fellow Eredivisie side FC Twente for the remainder of the season.[5]

Club Brugge (loan)

On 5 October 2020, Ajax and Club Brugge reached a transfer agreement for Lang to move to Brugge on an initial loan which will be converted into a permanent transfer no later than 1 July 2021.[6] Three weeks later, he scored his first goal for the club from the penalty-spot in a losing effort against OH Leuven.[7] Lang scored in Club Brugge's 3–0 victory over Zenit Saint Petersburg in their penultimate UEFA Champions League group stage match on 2 December to keep alive Club Brugge's hopes of qualifying for the knock-out round.[8] However, Club Brugge could only manage a 2–2 draw in the final match against Italian side Lazio and were parachuted down to the Europa League for the Round of 32.[9] On 28 January 2021, in his first appearance in a Bruges derby against Cercle, Lang scored the winning goal as Club Brugge came back from 1–0 down to win 1–2.[10]

International career

Born in the Netherlands, Lang is of Surinamese descent through his biological mother. He is a youth international for the Netherlands.[11] Lang considers himself Dutch, Surinam and Moroccan but can't internationally represent the latter due to not having Moroccan citizenship.[12]

Personal life

Lang was born in the Netherlands. He was raised by his stepfather, Moroccan international footballer Nourdin Boukhari.[13]
