Owen Hargreaves is looking for a new club and he has posted some videos on YouTube to prove his fitness.
Here is one of them

TRYING out for an Adelaide United contract was more terrifying than hunting buffalo with only an axe, aspiring soccer player Phillip O'Keefe says.

He would set out on hunting expeditions from Borroloola, near the Gulf of Carpentaria, 200km west of the Queensland border.

"It's a bit scary. We get bullocks and cows and we use axes and sometimes a gun. But I reckon being here in Adelaide is a bit scarier for me."

He is the first indigenous beneficiary of the Martyn Crook Foundation, established to help talented young players get a start in the sport.

It is great to see they are checking the talent up there. Now we just need some of our red centre boys to adopt the game.

Courtesy of Google Translate:
Australia beckons for club free Levchenko
Evgeniy Levchenko is an adventure in Australia. Louis Laros agent is in talks with Adelaide United.
Laros had last Monday in touch with the club from the top Australian business, he reports to Voetbal International. "Rini Coolen is the coach of Adelaide United. In this league, they work with salary ceilings," says the representative.

"Not that the requirements of Levchenko's so high, but there must of course be some reward when viewing on the opposite side of the world is soccer. We are now awaiting a concrete proposal." Levchenko was recently looking for a new employer.

An agreement with Adelaide may be some time coming, since competition in Australia until October begins. Levchenko, last year is still active for Willem II, trained a couple of times along with his team VVCS fitness levels.
Don't know anything about him, tbh. Anyone?

33 year old urkanian international , midfielder.

Has played for some reasonably good clubs by aleague standard,

Started playing seniors in 93 farkn!

All from his wiki page so not sure if its true.

Can only assume he is considered for flores role as every other position other then cb is well and truly covered, to me his age is not a faxtor since we have such a young squad the extra experienced will help , he seems to have played alot of games over his career so you would think he is injury prone

33, not exactly in his prime, more like at the end of his career but if he turns out to be another Dwight Yorke or Juninho then I'd be happy.

Still would prefer a young South American though tbh.

There are a couple of 35 year olds in the Austrian Bundesliga that would tear up the A-league.

A bit of experience is not a bad thing.

That's true, he will probably be a hit with the ladies, too..

At least we know he won't be another pie eating Charlie Miller / Carlos Hernandez, lol.
