Early life and career

Sadaoui was born in Morocco where he started his career in the youth ranks of Wydad Casablanca, before emigrating to the United States with his parents at age 11 to join the youth team of New York Red Bulls playing in the PDA Academy.[1] Growing up in Bayonne, New Jersey, he attended Saint Benedict's Preparatory School, where he won 2011 Prep Player of the Year and was All-Prep First Team in his junior and senior years. He was leading goal scorer that year with 24 overall, taking his team to the playoffs and the national championship. Following his University-preparatory school career he joined the Saint Peter's College, finishing his first season with the Peacocks with 2011–12 All-MAAC Second Team and All-MAAC Rookie Team honors.[2]
