Sounds like Damien Duff on a 2 year contract to Melbourne Heart/City is a done deal.

Confirmed on a 1 year deal.

"In total the Club has five further players it can sign to complete its 23-man squad with an additional (24th) guest player also permitted to play in up to ten games. Melbourne City last week announced David Villa will join the Club for a period of the Hyundai A-League 2014/15 season."

So Villa is a lone then?

It reads like that but they say Duff is the 3rd visa player (Germano & Wielaert are the other two). But it says they have 5 roster spots open and by my count they have 6 if Villa is a guest player. Its a bit confuzzling.

It reads like that but they say Duff is the 3rd visa player (Germano & Wielaert are the other two). And says they have 5 roster spots open (Duff would be 19th). So unless they have ditched a visa player without announcing it, he is the 24th (guest) player.
