Biography

Wood is of Polynesian and Japanese ancestry.[2] He began his youth career in 1999 with Powder Edge SC located in Honolulu, Hawaii. He moved to California in 2005 to play with Irvine Strikers but eventually relocated to Germany in July 2007 to join 1860 Munich.

1860 Munich

On January 29, 2011, Wood made his professional debut coming on in the 82nd minute as a substitute during a 2. Bundesliga match against MSV Duisburg.[3]

Wood made his first career start for 1860 Munich in October 2011 against F.C. Hansa Rostock.[4] On November 30, 2012, against VfR Aalen, Wood scored his first professional goal to secure a 1–1 draw for 1860 Munich.[5]

In December 2012, Wood signed his first professional contract, extending his stay with 1860 through the 2016 season.[6]

Erzgebirge Aue

In February 2015, Wood moved to fellow 2. Bundesliga side Erzgebirge Aue signing a contract until 2017.[7] For Aue, Wood made nine league appearances and scored three goals before seeing the club relegated to 3. Liga for the first time in six years.

1. FC Union Berlin

In July 2015, Wood signed a three-year contract with 1. FC Union Berlin for an undisclosed fee.[8] In his Union Berlin debut season, Wood broke the record for goals scored by an American in a single season in Germany's top two flights.[9]

Hamburger SV

On May 15, 2016, Wood signed a four-year deal with Hamburger SV.[10]

International career

In May 2013, Wood was named to a preliminary United States' 35-man roster for the 2013 Gold Cup.[11] Wood made his senior international debut in a friendly match against Bosnia and Herzegovina in August 2013.[12][13]

Wood scored his first senior international goal in June 2015, a game-winner in a 4–3 victory against the Netherlands. Five days later, Wood scored the game-winning goal in a 2–1 friendly victory against top-ranked Germany in Cologne.[14] In the 2015 CONCACAF Cup against Mexico to decide which team would qualify for the 2017 Confederations Cup, coach Jurgen Klinsmann substituted Wood on in the 98th minute, after Mexico scored the go-ahead goal in extra time. Wood scored the tying goal in the 108th minute on a through ball from DeAndre Yedlin, but the United States ended up losing the match on an additional extra time goal from Mexico.
