Rest of A-League Transfer (Now with 99% RR - Love your work)

Due to unforeseen circumstances beyond the club's control, we won’t be able to announce our new signings on Friday as planned.

— Perth Glory FC (@PerthGloryFC) August 3, 2017

The Roar are set to announce that triallist Peter Skapetis, who scored against Peninsula, will be offered an injury-replacement deal as cover for long-term casualty Daniel Bowles (knee).

Former Newcastle and Perth midfielder Mitch Oxborrow was to have signed as Bowles’s injury replacement, but he instead put pen to paper on a regular season-long contract.

The Roar have also signed teenage midfielder Emilio Martinez on a scholarship deal.

After a courtship of several weeks, the Sky Blues expect the former Polish international will have passed a medical and signed the deal on offer by the end of the week.

Mierzejewski will replace Filip Holosko on the right side of Sydney’s midfield, though his salary — believed to be close to $600,000 — will come inside the salary cap.

@MelbourneCity have tabled a 2yr marquee status offer to Croatian midfielder Antun Palic worth approx $1.1m @FOXFOOTBALL @TheWorldGame #SST

Any good El Grap?

Bart Schenkeveld is probably pursuing his career in Australia.The defender of PEC Zwolle is in talks with Melbourne City.

The 29-year-old attacking midfielder is a free agent having left Romanian club FC Dinamo Bucuresti — where he played 73 games in the past two years.

But the eight-time Croatian youth international is now understood to be on the verge of signing for another overseas club.

And in an added bonus to its 2017-18 prospects, firebrand winger Fernando Brandan is making a play for a shock Round 1 return from a serious knee injury.

Brandan required surgery after injuring his anterior cruciate ligament in training in March.

The season-opening clash against Brisbane at AAMI Park on October 6 would be seven months post injury, but the 27-year-old is back running and recovering well.

A Round 1 return is seen as a best-case scenario, but the club’s medical staff is confident Brandan will feature early in the season.

Melbourne City’s hopes of securing former Croatian under-21 representative Antun Palic are officially over, with the club unable to meet the financial demands of the 29-year old.
