He is right footed and usually plays as a right winger but can also play as a left winger, both side of attacking midfield. He is also a part of the Netherlands U-21 national team.

In 2008 Narsingh signed a contract with SC Heerenveen till 2013. He made his official debut on 29 October 2008 in the Eredivisie under trainer Trond Sollied. He replaced the injured Danijel Pranjić in a 2-0 loss against Vitesse. A month later he was allowed to play in the away match against FC Twente (6-0 loss). Also in the 2009-2010 season Narsingh came twice in action. The following year, however, he made his breakthrough under coach Ron Jans and Narsingh grew into a sensation in the Eredivisie because of his dribbling skills, speed and passing movements and drove Roy Beerens from the first eleven.

Luciano Narsingh was born on 13 September 1990 in Amsterdam. His youth was mainly football. His older brother, Furdjel Narsingh also plays in paid football. Together they played in the AFC Ajax youth academy for several years. But when Luciano was found to be too light for Ajax to go further he was picked up by SC Heerenveen and grown as one of the great talents. Furdjel moved to AZ Alkmaar but after being loaned out a couple times he transferred to FC Zwolle in the Eerste Divisie, the country's second level of professional club football.

In February 2012, Luciano Narsingh was called up for the first time by Bert van Marwijk to represent the senior Netherlands football team for the game against England at Wembley.^[1]
