Larry Cohen (born 7 November 1987) is a South African professional soccer player of Lithuanian descent who plays for Ajax Cape Town.[1]
Larry Cohen was born to Martin Cohen, one of South Africa's prominent footballers in the 1970s.[2]
On 21 November 2014, Cohen's application of the reinstation of the Lithuanian nationality was approved and he became a Lithuanian citizen.[3] He received his first call up for the Lithuanian national football team for the UEFA Euro 2016 qualifying match against England, but FIFA did not allow Cohen to play for Lithuania.[4]
After four seasons with Ezenkosi, Cohen signed with Wits in 2010.[5]
