Early career

Angking was born in Providence, Rhode Island, and began his career playing for a local team, Bayside FC Bolts.[1] At the age of 14, he joined the youth sides of MLS side New England Revolution. With their U-19 side, he scored 12 goals in 11 games.[2][1]

Club career

New England Revolution

On January 2, 2018, Angking was called up to the New England Revolution Senior Squad—their fourth homegrown player. However, he failed to make an appearance for most of 2018, in part due to an injury he suffered in preseason, setting him aside for majority of the 2018 season.[1] On September 5, 2018, Angking made his first MLS appearance against NYCFC, coming on for Brian Wright.[3]

International career

Angking has capped for various US youth sides, namely the U-17 side in the Nike International Friendlies, where he played in all three games in victories over Brazil, Portugal, and Turkey.[1] However, he missed the U-17 World Cup.[4]

Angking is also eligible to play for Malaysia as he has Malaysian heritage.
