Finn Surman (born 23 September 2003) is a New Zealand professional footballer who plays as a central defender for Wellington Phoenix and the New Zealand national team.
In November 2021, Surman was one of three players who travelled to Australia to join Wellington Phoenix's senior A-League Men side, forced to play away from home due to travel restrictions imposed due to the COVID-19 pandemic in New Zealand.[2] He made his debut for the Phoenix in a win over Western United in the 2021 FFA Cup on 7 December 2021.[3]
Surman signed a professional contract with the Phoenix in February 2022.[4] By April 2022, Surman was making regular appearances in the Phoenix's starting side.[5]
On 5 June 2023, he was called-up by New Zealand for the first time.[6]
