It’s been two weeks since news hit that the Victory were looking at Costa Rican striker Windell Gabriel. Since then, a slow visa process has kept Gabriel from being able to come to Melbourne for a trial, according to the Herald Sun. With the Costa Rican league just started, time’s running out for Gabriel to get out here.
The Herald Sun article also mentions that Nathan Elasi’s contract has been extended to a two-year deal. Gary Cole is reported to say: “He’s a cracker. We’re really happy with him.”
Is that so, Gary? Does Ernie think so?
Melbourne’s recruitment so far this off-season hasn’t been inspirational. Elasi signed, never played. Pondeljak signed, never played. At least Celeski has managed to become a regular fixture in the squad.
