Club career

[edit]

Early years

[edit]

Born in Amsterdam,[2] Noslin played for several clubs in his hometown, including ASV Arsenal, Buitenveldert and Swift, before moving to 's-Hertogenbosch at age 14 to join FC Den Bosch's academy.[3] He was, however, released and he returned to Amsterdam a year later, continuing to play for youth teams of lower league clubs including OJC Rosmalen and RODA '23.[4][5] He later joined FC Twente's academy, but was released as an 18-year-old, with the club citing his lack of height.[4]

After a failed trial at an academy in Manchester, he signed for amateur Dutch side USV Hercules.[4] He made 26 league appearances and scored 10 goals for Hercules between 2017 and 2020,[2] prior to joining DHSC in summer 2020.[6] After five league appearances for DHSC across the 2020–21 season, in which he was tutored by assistant coach Wesley Sneijder and former professional players Mounir El Hamdaoui and Ismaïl Aissati, Noslin signed an amateur contract with TOP Oss in the summer of 2021.[7][3][8]

Fortuna Sittard

[edit]

As Noslin was not under a professional contract at TOP Oss, he joined Eredivisie side Fortuna Sittard later that summer on a free transfer, and signed a three-year contract.[7] He made his debut for the club on 18 September 2021 as a substitute for George Cox in a 1–0 defeat to SC Heerenveen.[9][10] He scored his first professional goal the following month with the opening goal of a 1–1 draw with Willem II after coming on as a half-time substitute.[11][12] On 20 November, he was granted his first start in professional football by head coach Sjors Ultee in a 3–1 away defeat to Heracles Almelo.[13] He finished his first season at Fortuna with one goal in 26 total appearances.[9]

During his second season at the club, Noslin grew into a regular starter. After scoring a spectular goal against Volendam on 17 March 2023, he was lauded by pundit and former Netherlands international Rafael van der Vaart in Studio Voetbal [nl], who called him "a nice player who is always dangerous. Very direct. He possesses all".[5][14]

Hellas Verona

[edit]

On 23 January 2024, Noslin joined Serie A club Hellas Verona for an undisclosed fee.[15][16]
