Antonio Tino Lucas Yakoub (ar|انطونيو تينو لوكاس يعقوب; born 12 June 2002) is a professional footballer who plays as a forward club Örebro SK. Born in Sweden, he represents Syria at international level.
Yakoub started playing football in a youth sector of Djurgårdens IF, before joining Assyriska FF in 2018.[1] [2]
In March 2022, Yakoub was loaned out to Allsvenskan club IK Sirius with a purchase option,[3] and later made his league debut for the club.
In July 2022, Sirius loaned him further to Gefle IF for the rest of the 2022 Ettan season. After the season, Gefle won a promotion to Superettan, and acquired Yakoub from Assyriska on a permanent deal for an undisclosed fee,[4] after Sirius hadn't exercised their option.[5] In August 2023, Yakoub was loaned out to fellow Superettan side Östers IF for the remainder of the 2023 season.[6]
Yakoub is eligible to represent Sweden, Finland and Syria, and has made one appearance for Finland under-20 national team in 2021.
Yakoub was named in the Syria senior national team squad for the postponed 2023 AFC Asian Cup in January 2024.[7] [8] He made his full international debut for Syria in the tournament, as a substitute in a 1–0 loss against Australia on 18 January 2024.[9]
Yakoub was born in Sweden to Assyrian mother and Finnish father.[10]
