PERTH'S quiet off-season has been given a boost with the re-signing of defender David Tarka on a new one-year deal.
The winner of the Glory's club champion award in 2006-2007, Tarka missed all of last year following a serious hamstring injury in his first game, the latest in a series of fitness setbacks.
But after reportedly turning down a big offer from A-League rivals Wellington, Tarka will stay in Perth to attempt to re-establish a career which had already brought one stint in Europe and Australia recognition.
