Samuel Shashoua (born 13 May 1999) is an English professional footballer who plays for Spanish club CD Tenerife as an attacking midfielder.

Club career[]

Shashoua was born in Chelsea, London where he attended Harrow School before signing with Tottenham Hotspur in 2015.[1] On 26 August 2018, he moved to Spanish Segunda División B side CD Atlético Baleares on a one-year loan deal.[2]

Shashoua made his senior debut on 9 September 2018, playing the last 18 minutes of a 2–1 away loss against SD Ejea. He scored his first goal late in the month by netting the opener in a 2–1 home defeat of UB Conquense, and finished the campaign with six goals in 33 appearances as his side missed out promotion in the play-offs.

On 23 August 2019, Shashoua was sold to CD Tenerife in Segunda División, and signed a three-year contract with the club.[3][4] The following 14 January, after failing to make an appearance due to an injury, Shashoua was again loaned to Atlético Baleares for the remainder of the season.[5] He only recovered in March, and played in three matches for ATB as the club missed out promotion in the play-offs for a second consecutive year.

Shashoua made his professional debut on 19 September 2020, replacing Bruno Wilson late into a 0–2 away loss against AD Alcorcón.[6] On 29 November, again from the bench, he scored his first goal in a 2–0 win at Albacete Balompié.[7]

Personal life[]

Born in England, Shashoua is of Venezuelan and Spanish descent.[8][9] His mother is half-Spanish.[9] Shashoua said that he would apply for a Spanish passport at the end of the 2020–21 season.[9]

Shashoua's younger brother is also a footballer and a midfielder; both played together for Atlético Baleares in 2020.[10]
