In his last interview, about a month ago, Bruce said that they were hoping to finalise the squad by the end of August so we should hear sooner rather than later hopefully.
That's pretty concerning considering we need at least 3-4 more players.

Sounds like Verbeek and Victory’s new signing had a beef in the past.

Given the dispute with ospeths former club I think its totally reasonable our signings have stalled.

You have to remember we play in a salary capped league, if FIFA were to find we were subject to a transfer fee it could totally change our salary cap budget or we could we without a striker all together.

Fifa have just finalised their findings and its in our favour so I would expect the final signings to start rolling in.

Its likely our chinese signing has been decided but with qingdao seemingly in a relegation battle that player may come a little later.
Ppl who slap the label of truth on the 1st thing they hear, do it out of ignorance, convenience or cant be bothered picking through a thin layer of falsehood to find the real truth, or possibly even another lie
The voice in our head is the final judge

No news about Troisi from anywhere. Just had a baby in early July so wouldn't be looking to go OS to a lower league and potential worse living/family environment you'd assume.

I wouldn't be surprised if we sign him.

100%

His big money days are over anyway. Our local media will be all over him.

Apparently a player associated with #9 is coming BACK to Adelaide. Could also be a retired player.

Any guesses?

A former player who is associated with Opseth somehow?

No I think he meant a former AUFC player who was associated with the #9. Not associated with our current #9.

Here are our previous #9s-

Baba Diawara
Sergi Guardiola
Sergio Cirio
Sergio Van Dijk
Cristiano
Paul Agostino
Lucas Pantelis
Matthew Kemp
Shane Smeltz


Or it could be a player who has played for AUFC who has previously worn the #9 elsewhere, like Nathan Burns.


Very cryptic, I like it.

Can't be a coach unless someone is coming to run an academy team.

Where did this rumour come from ??

The rumour is that Isaias has agreed to become a Youth Coach at AUFC when his time at Qatar is up in less than two years.

Or even a player that plays that position (centre forward) without necessarily having that shirt number
