Early and personal life
editLemkin was born and raised in Tel Aviv, Israel. His father is Israeli lawyer Shachar Lemkin, who also manages his football career.[3][4] His mother Yana Lemkin is a designer and a social-volunteer in Israel, who hails from Soviet Ukraine (now Ukraine) before her immigration to Israel, although she still has some relatives who reside in Ukraine.[5][4]
He also holds a Spanish passport, on account of his Sephardi Jewish ancestors, which eases the move to certain European football leagues.[1][6]
International career
editSince early youth, he had capped internationally with the Israel national under-16 team (2018), the Israel national under-17 team (2019–2020), the Israel national under-19 team (2021–2022), the Israel national under-20 team (2023), and the Israel national under-21 team (2022 debut).[7][8]
He made his senior debut for the Israel national team in 2023.[7]
