Benny Lauth is after SPORT1 information just before a change to the Australian first division club Brisbane Roar.

The 32-year-old striker, whose contract was not renewed at 1860 Munich after six years, has already met with former Bundesliga player Thomas Broich, who plays for Brisbane since 2010, in Munich.

Broich, who played FC Nuremberg in Germany for SpVgg Unterhaching, Wacker Burghausen and Borussia Moenchengladbach, the first FC Cologne and the first, was last for the second time as the best player in the A-League 2013/14 season with the "Johnny Warren Medal "award.

How SPORT1 further learned toying also the former national player Mike Hanke with a move to Brisbane.

The 31-year-old, who last played with SC Freiburg and his contract prematurely disbanded after last season, should be already to negotiations in Australia.

Hanke played in the Bundesliga for Schalke 04, VfL Wolfsburg, Hannover 96, Borussia Mönchengladbach and the Breisgau.

A few points:

1. The wording of this is funny in that its complicated in what they are trying to say, have already met Broich sounds like Broich is the manager and they are talking about final details....
2. This Paper in Germany I have it on good authority works close with 1860 Munchen
3. either one would be great but these papers i think give the rumours more substance imo.

pretty handy if we get both

do we have 2 visa spots ?
Broich , miller, solosarno*, leaves 1 spot right ? And he fish

Henrique is very close to getting the citizenship

Surely we wouldn't have enough room under the cap?

I thought Broich and Miller were extremely close to getting citizenship as well? I don't think Visa spots would be the problem, it would be cap space

The guarantee of playing time is probably more of an issue than cash in trying to sign both of them. Would love to get them both, especially if one is capable filling in on the wing or as an attacking mid.

Assuming we retain everybody (Brattan, Franjic, Petratos), stay injury free/recover (Broich, Miller, Lambo), and manage to get 1 or 2 quality strikers in, our squad is looking pretty fucking tidy for next season if I do say so myself. Throw in a 4th CB and we are at least 2 deep all over the park.

He's got permanent residency by now surely at the very least?

Looking forward to another strong team this year. :d

Having both would be bloody unreal. At the very least I hope we get either one of them

So...what would happen come ACL time?

get rid of miller and Solorzano

So, is Miller not going to be in the Roar's starting side next season?

no... lustica will play ACL thats why we got him. O.O

he's on about $8 per week. Word is his Mrs is a Brisbane girl, so he was living here regardless. Great cheap option for tbh, especially if the 3 other boys do become citizens over the off-season.

He seems happy to be making up the numbers and with a full preseason could be very good value for money.

If they get both Hanke / Lauth it will be title time....Berisha will just be a distant memory.

Has anyone notified the Australian Workers Union. :lol:
