EXCLUSIVE: Australia defender Trent Sainsbury is reportedly set to sign a short-term deal with Sydney FC, in a bid to remain fit heading into the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
Sources close to the club told beIN SPORTS Sainsbury will reunite with former Central Coast Mariners boss Graham Arnold at Sydney FC as the defender looks to remain match-fit for the 2018 FIFA World Cup in June.
Sainsbury was a keen observer during Sydney FC’s 2-2 draw against Newcastle, with this tweet on Wednesday.
Newcastle goal was top but give yaself a pat on the back Ninkovic  absolute dancing feet. Top shelf
The 25 year-old emerged as one of Australia’s best young defenders under the tutelage of Graham Arnold at the Central Coast Mariners, where he won the A-League Championship in 2013.
Since then, Sainsbury has gone on to play for PEC Zwolle, Italian giant Inter Milan and current side Jiangsu Suning, which is in off season until March.
When approached for comment by beIN SPORTS, a Sydney FC spokesperson refused to be drawn on Sainsbury’s transfer speculation.
