Always Human Serves Up the AO with Carlos Alcaraz and YoPRO
Always Human has officially signed rising Western Sydney Wanderers and CommBank Young Matildas midfielder Talia Younis to its talent roster, taking on exclusive management for one of Australian football’s brightest young stars.
The partnership marks an exciting new chapter in Younis’ career and further strengthens Always Human’s position as Australia’s leading athlete management agency, representing some of the nation’s most influential sporting talent.
There are very few footballers who rewrite the record books before they turn 18. Talia Younis is one of them.
In October 2023, aged just 14 years and 361 days, Younis became the youngest player in A-League Women history, surpassing a record previously held by Australian football icon Sam Kerr.
Since then, Younis has continued her remarkable rise, establishing herself as one of Australia’s brightest young football talents, with many believing a senior Matildas call-up is only a matter of time.
Now just 17 years old, she has already made more than 50 senior A-League Women appearances and enjoyed a breakout 2025/26 campaign, claiming a rare double at the Western Sydney Wanderers Medal by taking home both Player of the Year and Members’ Player of the Year.
Josh White, CEO of Always Human Group, said:
“We’re thrilled to welcome Talia to the Always Human family. She is one of the most exciting young talents to emerge from Australian football in recent years, and we’re incredibly excited to support her journey both on and off the pitch. Talia is only just getting started. Our focus is on helping her build a world-class personal brand and commercial portfolio that reflects the exceptional athlete and person she is becoming.”
Talia Younis said:
“I’m honoured to be joining Always Human. Having great people around you makes all the difference and I believe this is the right environment to continue growing both as a footballer and as a person. I’m excited for what’s ahead and thankful for the opportunity.”
Always Human’s talent division represents a roster of many of Australia’s most recognisable athletes and creators, including, global football star Mary Fowler, Olympic champion and world record holder Kaylee McKeown, three-time Olympic champion Jessica Fox, AFL premiership star Will Ashcroft, cricket icon Ellyse Perry, Olympic pole vault champion Nina Kennedy, former Wallaby Nick ‘Honey Badger’ Cummins, and Australia’s leading sports podcast, Hello Sport.
