Andrew Brennan (born 1 April 1993) is an Australian professional soccer player who plays as a winger or striker for South Melbourne.
In May 2019, Brennan came out as gay, becoming the first openly gay Australian male footballer.[1]
Career
Brennan joined the Newcastle Jets on 29 April 2015 from National Premier League side South Melbourne, signing a two-year deal.[2] Due largely to ongoing injury problems, Brennan was forced to wait until 26 March 2016 to make his A-League debut against Perth Glory, replacing Mitch Cooper in a 2–1 loss.[3] Brennan went on to make a total of three appearances in his maiden A-League season, all off the substitutes' bench.
On 19 January 2017, it was announced that Brennan had parted with the Jets by mutual consent.[4] He made a total of five A-league appearances during his time with the Jets.[5] He then returned to Bentleigh Greens SC in the Victorian Premier League.[6]
In November 2018, Brennan signed with Green Gully of the NPL Victoria League.[7]
Personal life
In an interview with the Herald Sun, Brennan came out as gay after being closeted for several months.[8] He had previously dated women, but had been unsure of his sexuality for years, stating that it had been a "mental burden".[1] Brennan is the first male Australian footballer to come out as gay, and one of only a few openly gay players playing professionally.[1]
