WSW skipper Michael Beauchamp, Mark Bridge, Ante Covic and Youssouf Hersi today joined teammate Nikolai Topor-Stanley at ANZ Stadium where the Foxtel A-League All Stars will play their debut game on July 20.
 
All five players polled strongly in the online voting with Covic leading the vote as first choice keeper by the fans, PFA team of the Year and expert selection panel.
 
More players will be announced in the coming week prior to the team going into camp on July 12, said the FFA today.
 
“The Wanderers players built up a great partnership last year and we’re continually growing as teammates. We’re looking forward to stepping out on the field together, especially against a team like Manchester United,” said Beauchamp.
 
“It’s a credit to the Wanderers squad and the season we had how many players we’ve had picked in the All-Stars side and we probably could have had a couple more.”
 
“It’s a great achievement not only by Wanderers players but all the players that are in the squad, having been selected by the fans and coaches and we’re all looking forward to the challenge.
 
“I’m looking forward to having the opportunity to play with former teammates like Brett Emerton, as well as players I’ve never played with before.”
 
Fans can get up close and personal with the Foxtel A-League All Stars at an open training session on Sunday July 14 at Sydney Olympic Park’s Warm Up Arena. Gates open at 9:30am with training starting at 10:00am.
