More than that - It as in the late 70s.
No more than a couple. In those days NSL clubs would invite OS players to play one or a few matches with them during the June/July European off-season. It wasn't a full-time season contract.

As I said who gives a pooooooo

This should have been settled one way or another weeks ago but his manager (who's a scumbag BTW) has been playing clubs off against one another and playing games

As for the other clubs supposedly chasing him......see none from the EPL want him

Welcome harry to Melbourne football club ..
Signed but not yet over the line.

HE protracted and painstaking bid to recruit Harry Kewell has inched closer after the Socceroo star signed a conditional contract with Melbourne Victory last Monday.

But Victory fans would be advised to keep the champagne on ice, as the deal is conditional on a separate agreement with Football Federation Australia that is at an impasse.

Kewell's manager, Bernard Mandic, has insisted FFA modify a clause to give Kewell commercial control of his image and naming rights, according to soccer sources.

Professional Footballers Australia chief executive Brendan Schwab is involved in the negotiations and is believed to have urged FFA to make an exception for Kewell. It is believed FFA made a similar exception for former Premier League stars Dwight Yorke and Robbie Fowler, who joined the A-League, but FFA has refused to accede to Mandic's request.

If an agreement cannot be reached with FFA by August 31, then Kewell's contract with Melbourne Victory expires and he would be free to pursue other offers.

THE saga over Harry Kewell's future should be settled today, with the Socceroos star set to announce he has signed a three-year deal with Melbourne Victory.

Kewell will sign with the former A-League champion under terms agreed with the club some time ago. As well as his base salary, he will receive a percentage of any increases in revenue his performances for the club create through attendances and marketing.

However, Kewell will not receive any money from Football Federation Australia, which had offered a total of up to $500,000 over three years to compensate the Socceroo veteran for use of his image rights.

Inevitably, Kewell has arranged his own commercial sponsorships outside the A-League to enhance his salary. Whether this will create conflict with the sponsors the A-League has been eager to protect remains to be seen.

LMFAO at all these soccer people creaming their jocks about Kewell.

Got news for you people its a bandaid solution. Kewell will stop the bleeding for 1 year tops then when he fails to fire Australian Soccer will be back where it belongs, on the brink of collapse
