David Aziaya

David Aziaya joined the Goalkeeping Union at Gander Green Lane at the end of June 2025, arriving just in time for pre-season ahead of the 2025/26 campaign to add additional competition to the ranks.

A product of the Norwich City academy, Aziaya’s background began in South London having joined the Canaries at the age of 17 from the Kinetic Foundation, a programme dedicated to developing young players.

After appearing for the club at Under-18 and Under-21 level, he later moved on loan to Barnsley’s youth setup during 2021/22 and enjoyed a three-month stint in Yorkshire, playing three times for the Under-18’s, before signing his first professional deal at Carrow Road and he subsequently gained crucial first team experience on loan at Faversham Town.

Standing at 6″6, the goalkeeper got a chance to develop closer to home and returned to South London with a move to Bromley and spent two years at Hayes Lane, continuing his development in both the National League and League Two. He was named on the bench a handful of times at both levels and made his professional debut for the club in a 1-0 win over Wealdstone in March 2024, playing a significant chunk of what proved to be a crucial win towards the Ravens’ eventual promotion-winning campaign.

Aziaya otherwise gained a host of experience out on loan with stints all around non-league, turning out for Chatham, Dover Athletic, Salisbury and Dartford across his two years at Bromley, and more recently moved to the League of Ireland with a stint at Finn Harps. He appeared more than ever before during his brief stay at Finn Park, playing ten times and displaying his qualities with a string of positive performances in the Premier Division, before being released from Bromley upon his return in May 2025.

He subsequently joined Sutton and made his debut in the National League Cup against Fulham, before enjoying a brief run in the side under Chris Agutter between October and November, offering cover during Jack Sims’ injury as Sutton rose out the relegation zone. In total, he appeared 11 times for the U’s, including three appearances off the bench.
