Australia striker Tomi Juric says intercontinental cup could be vital for himself and the team.
Socceroos striker Tomi Juric is a man in form after six goals in six games and he’s also hot property on the transfer market.
The 25-year-old forward netted twice in Australia’s 3-2 win over Saudi Arabia in Adelaide on Thursday night to maintain his super form, having scored four goals in five games late in the Swiss season for FC Luzern.

Juric has another year to run on his Luzern contract but is being monitored by several clubs, with German Bundesliga pair Eintracht Frankfurt and FC Augsburg scouting him in March, while English Championship club Reading made an offer for him in January.
The Confederations Cup, where Australia will face Germany, Chile and Cameroon, looms as the perfect platform for the ex-Western Sydney man to showcase his talents.
“For me personally, I’ve finished off well in the business part of the season,” Juric said.
“If I can keep this ball rolling, it’s an important competition and one we really want to do well in. It’s not something we take lightly. We want to go there and make an impact and play well.
“That stands for everybody, not just myself. I think everyone is full of confidence that we can make an impact.”
