What's Lia's contract situation? Should try and get the band back together.
ADELAIDE United may have lost its fight in retaining revered Viking Johan Absalonsen but in a twist of fate South Australian-born favourite Craig Goodwin’s pending return may soften the blow.
As Adelaide looks to wind up its season by the weekend after the Reds were knocked out of the playoffs in a cruel 2-1 loss to grand finalist Melbourne Victory in the elimination final on April 22, it’s believed Vinni Lia, 33, has signed a contract extension.
The club is also resigned to losing stopper Ersan Gulum to Melbourne City after his Chinese loan deal expires on June 30 with long serving Tarek Elrich expected to return to his former club Western Sydney for the new season.
