Western Sydney Wanderers FC have confirmed the signing of Australian-born midfielder Dylan Scicluna from Wolverhampton Wanderers for the upcoming Isuzu UTE A-League season.
The 19-year-old returns back to Australia for the first time in his professional career having been in the Wolverhampton Wanderers Academy for the last six years.
A bright talent, Scicluna made his Wolves debut as a 13-year-old in their U18s squad and went on to make 36 appearances across all competitions at the club.
The Premier League 2 Division 2 and Premier League Cup Runner-Up has also made a number of national team appearances for both Australia and Malta in the last year.
Head coach Marko Rudan welcomed Dylan back to Australia.
“We are delighted to secure a young talent in Dylan for the upcoming A-Leagues season,” said Rudan.
“Dylan is set to bolster our midfield by adding more depth and creativity, and we look forward to watching his development over the next season.”
Dylan Scicluna said he was ready to take the next step.
“I’ve come to Western Sydney because I think it’s a great next step in my development and I believe there will be opportunities for me to show what I can do to help the team,” said Scicluna.
“Western Sydney are one of the biggest Australian clubs and our aim is to win and achieve great things together.
“I’m hoping to become an important part of the squad and be in the starting 11 as soon as possible to help the team win the A-Leagues this season.”
