Foxe is reportedly mates with some of the current Fury squad members & was granted a request by head coach Ian Ferguson to train with the squad as the club less player seeks to retain/gain some fitness. The club spokesperson elaborated further… ''He's mates with a couple of boys in the team and asked 'Fergie' (Fury Head Coach Ian Ferguson) if he could train with us.” Released by Perth Glory at the culmination of the 2008/9 season the Sydney born Ajax Amsterdam academy product is one of the most talented players to have ever been produced by Australia. However a career that saw the player continually cruelled by injury for well over decade (Mostly Knee problems) caused the player to never actually live up to his potential. Identified by current Tottenham Hotspur boss Harry Redknapp, Foxe played for Redknapp at both West Ham Utd & Portsmouth but was never able to string a continuous block of football together that has basically been the sorry story of his career. Returning to Australia with Perth glory Foxe again spent more time on the treatment table than on the training paddock & was subsequently released at the end of last season. Hayden made only 8 appearances in 2 seasons with Perth due to injury. Ian Ferguson will no doubt run the rule over the player while he trains with his Fury squad but would imaginably be reluctant to look at Hayden for beyond the current season due to the players aforementioned horrendous injury record. A crying shame as Hayden could have been one of Australia’s very best & despite being almost continuously injured made 15 full caps for the Socceroos & played U/23 level at the 1996 & 2000 Olympic Games along with international appearances at the 1993 U/17 & 1997 U/20 Youth World Cup finals.

He has an awesome pedigree, one that far surpasses all but a handful of A-League defenders. Sure, it's about more than one's resume, but he certainly has the talent and experience, - hopefully he can surprise us, with a happy ending to his career.
