PERTH Glory completed their A-League squad with the signing of experienced Australian midfielder Wayne Srhoj on a one-year deal.
Queenslander Srhoj, 26, has spent the last five years plying his trade in Romania after helping the Glory win the National Soccer League (NSL) Championship in 2003/04.
Srhoj has been training with Perth for the last fortnight following his return to Australia and completes the Glory's 23-man squad, although they have the option to bring in a guest player for seven matches of the season.
"When I was last here Perth Glory was the standout team in Australian football and I see no reason why they can't be again," Srhoj said.
"I'm happy to be back and looking forward to getting onto the pitch in the near future.
"I'm feeling fitter and fitter with every session and I'll continue to work overtime to show the coach I'm ready to go.
"It has been a while since I last played in Australia and I'm really looking forward to putting the Glory shirt back on and getting out there with the boys."
Perth have made a disappointing start to the new A-League campaign and have picked up just one point from three games after suffering a 5-2 defeat against Sydney on Sunday.
"Wayne is an accomplished player who is technically very good and has excellent passing range," said Glory coach Dave Mitchell.
"He is a great addition to our squad and as he builds to peak fitness he'll be very important for us throughout the campaign."
