Curated List by Kosta Barbarouses, Wellington Phoenix Player

Proud Wellingtonian Kosta Barbarouses is one of the most decorated players in A-League history.

The Wellington Phoenix forward is a four-time A-League champion, is fourth on the all-time list of A-League men's goal scorers and is one of just nine players to reach the 300-game milestone.

Kosta started his professional career at his hometown club in 2007 and has won titles with Brisbane Roar, Melbourne Victory (twice) and Sydney FC.

Fresh off the second-most prolific season of his career, leading the Phoenix’s record-breaking campaign with 13 goals and five assists, he has signed a new contract with the aim of bringing the A-League trophy back to Wellington for the first time.
