FoxSports is reporting this afternoon that Mark Janko is the front-runner for the Sydney FC Marquee squad spot.

The Austrian is coming off a couple of seasons in Turkey with Trabzonspor after spells with FC Twente and Porto. He is best known for his time back in Austria with Red Bull Salzburg which saw him become a regular for the national team and a leading goal scorer in multiple Austrian Bundesliga seasons.
He is a solid front man who is very good in the air, given his height you would hope so too.
It could be a very good signing for Sydney FC, though does he fulfil the point of an International Marquee?
He is a good player, proven in Europe and at international level. He is only 31, certainly a lot younger than what Sydney FC normally go for. But his name value is nowhere near as high as an ADP. But an ADP does not come onto the market every day. So it seems to me Arnold is using this uncapped squad spot to fulfil a weakness in his team. Could be a very smart move.
