Early life

[edit]

Bindon was born on 27 January 2005, to Jenny and Grant Bindon; his mother won 77 caps for the New Zealand women's soccer team and his father captained the New Zealand volleyball team.[3] Bindon moved to California at age 12 after his mother was hired as a coach for the UCLA women's soccer team.[4]

Club career

Bindon began his career in New Zealand with East Coast Bays.[5][6]

On 7 August 2023, Bindon signed a two-year contract with EFL League One club Reading after moving from the LAFC Academy and featuring in four pre-season games under manager Rubén Sellés.[7][3] He made his professional debut the following day, in a 4–0 win at Millwall in the EFL Cup.[8] Bindon scored his first Reading goal in a 2–1 defeat to Leyton Orient on 7 October 2023.[9] Bindon finished runner-up in the 2023–24 Player of the Season Award for Reading after making 44 appearances and scoring two goals in his first season.[10][11] Bindon captained Reading for the first time on 2 November 2024 against Fleetwood Town in the first round of the FA Cup.[12][13]

International career

[edit]

Bindon won his first cap for the United States under-19 team against Argentina in March 2023, having been eligible to represent the US through his American-born mother.[4][3]

On 26 September 2023, Bindon was called up to the New Zealand men's national football team for the first time.[14][15] Bindon made his debut on 13 October 2023 when he came on as a late substitute replacing Michael Boxall against the Democratic Republic of Congo.[16] On 17 November 2023, Bindon made his first start for New Zealand in a friendly against Greece.[17][18] In February 2024, Bindon was nominated for the 2023 New Zealand Men's Young Player of the Year.[19]
