Marc Overmars has been linked with Perth Glory..very ITSTL, though doubt we'd go for him now, considering he broke his leg playing for Go Ahead Eagles in Holland couple of weeks ago. Apparently we could seal a deal for Mile Sterjovski as well in the near future.
I <3 Sterjovski. Most underrated player for ages IMO. I'd be half-supporting Perth tbh if you guys can get him next season; which is a possibility because he's had so little game time since he came to Derby County.
Also Glory have released Amaral ( ) and Tarka as well. Rizzo has gone to CCM Foxe --> Released Trinidad --> Persiba Balikpapan Mark Lee --> Released Sikora on a perm deal and Jacob Burns are only signings so far.
Apparently the Marc Overmars transfer could be very close, Mitchell has said that Overmars was very keen on a move to Australia and Perth was an attractive option to him. Hoping for Sterjovski as well, would boost our attacking stock immensely.

Scott Neville is an immense prospect BTW. Word going round is that he could well move to a European club within 3-4 years if he keeps up with his progression etc.
Tell you what, he looked ****ing rubbish from what I saw of him last season. Looked like one of those lanky, uncoordinated guys who know what they want to do, but can't get their body to cooperate. That said, he's still young.
We love him down here, was immense in the youth league games. That being said, any European move would be like the ones we see from most of our players nowadays, to shitty Turkish clubs etc.
Aye I know, hence stating it in a previous point . It isn't a complete break though, fracture or something (less severe)
LOL And the fact he can only train part time and play limited minutes becaue of a chronic knee problem.
Ledley King for Spurs much? Doesn't ever train, and can only play one game every week. Still play week in, week out at the top level of the game.
Speirz, I reckon Tsattalios was a decent pick-up for you guys. What will happen after his 6 month ACL contract expires?
