#Calciomercato | #Diamanti ricomincia da Melbourne: giocherà nel @wufcofficial https://t.co/I0wcwNaTJA

Western United set to sign36 year old midfielder Alessandro Diamanti. The name should sound familiar, he was the bloke the FFA denied the Victory the use of the 'Cahill Guest Stint' for.
I really wonder about the Diamanti and WU in general.
Even though he has played a number of games the last few seasons, he's 36 and one bad injury and WU are down the gurgler.
They pretty much have a squad of centrebacks, so mark Diamanti out of the game and you blunt them. I put Scott McDonald in a similar category. Shades of Del Pierro Sydney.
Horvat / Rudan is assembling a very old squad there.

Roar to lose a midfielder to Indonesia? Reports from Indonesia suggest Pepper but some think McKay (even tho he has retired)

With the only difference that Del Piero was a tier 1 footballer and Diamanti, maybe, a tier 3 one!

I’m hearing Norwegian striker Kristian Fardal Opseth will be unveiled as an @AdelaideUnited player in the coming days. 29yo, 188cm hitman, with 98 goals in 181 games in his homeland & most recently for Erzurum in Turkish Super Lig. Would be Reds’ 3rd off-season signing. #ALeague pic.twitter.com/SgyJtsp6Re

That tweet makes him sound almost awesome. But the vast majority of his goals (i.e 82 of the 98) have come in the 2nd or 3rd tier of Scandanavian football.

Mark Birighitti to depart Melbourne City#ALeague https://t.co/lDPVIBAMrD
Birighitti to CCM?
The Jets are yet to replace Ivan Vujica, who was released to join new Melbourne club Western United.
Coach Ernie Merrick's preference is for an attacking player.
The Jets inquired about Andy Keogh, who has reportedly been frozen out at Perth Glory despite the striker having signed a one-year extension, but the Irishman appears likely to stay in the west.
The 33-year-old former international knocked back an approach from Adelaide United in the off-season and according to sources is reluctant to move from Perth, where a number of his family have migrated.
Perth are understood to be happy for Keogh to depart but do not intend to pay him out or do any deals with other clubs that involve the Glory cover some of his wage.
The Jets budget has been cut and they have limited money available in the $3.1 million salary cap to spend.

55 goals and 15 assists in 117 games is pretty phenomenal. Dunno why they're axing him

Fell out with the coach. So attitude issue I would say. They have signed Fornaroli so Keogh not happy being a bit part player. He did alot of bench time last year, even in the final.

English transfer window closes in another week. Decision time I guess for any England based players weighing up signing there or moving elsewhere like the A league.
Wonder if there is anyone on Phoenix radar in this position.

Dunno how I feel about this. I would love to see Wes in the league but he is a luxury player. An old one at that.
I don't want to witness the decline of a canaries legend this close.
JIngham to leave CCM and join the Roar.
