The Covert Agent: Bernie Ibini turns down Central Coast return in favour of UAE move

• Goal's resident spy reveals the Aussie attacker was close to a return to Gosford

Central Coast Mariners may have landed Usain Bolt for an indefinite training period, but they have narrowly missed out on sealing the surprise return of Bernie Ibini

The Covert Agent can reveal that Ibini was contemplating an A-League return before a last-minute offer from UAE-based side Emirates swayed him.

Ibini started his career with the Mariners in 2010 before moves to China, Belgium and most recently Canada with MLS outfit Vancouver Whitecaps.

In between those moves Ibini did return to the Central Coast on loan in 2013 scoring six goals across 16 appearances, as well as having two stints with Sydney FC.

The 25-year-old was tempted to join Mike Mulvey's side but a lucrative offer from Emirates saw a potential return to Gosford ruled out.

Ibini has made eight appearances for the Whitecaps this season, and even played in a 2-2 draw on the weekend in New York, but will now make the move to the UAE.

Reading that about Bernie hurts...

It’s nice knowing he considered helping out his OG club in our time of need, but you can’t blame him for taking the pay day.
I doubt he’ll be there for more than 18months.

Yes. We can have Weemac.

Don’t see us signing another 10 myself.

Where does Shabow play? Had it in my head he’s a CAM.

I guess we line up something like this if O'Neill is locked in as it stands with i guess Golec and Aspro not beeen fit for round one,

.....................................BK...................................................
Millar.................Cisse............Rowles.................Clisby.........
................O'Neill..............Tommy H......................................
.................................. Weemac............................................
Hoole........................ ....Simon...............................Pain...........

Yes. We can have Weemac.

Don’t see us signing another 10 myself.

Where does Shabow play? Had it in my head he’s a CAM.

O'Neill maybe? Seems like a DDS replacement.

 

[FFC Mariner]

Wee Mac?

So we need a decent 10 now then?

 

[Big Al]

Wee Mac is busted and not a starting 10. Wide maybe

Should of just stuck with busted

 

[JoyfulPenguin]

Yes. We can have Weemac.

Don’t see us signing another 10 myself.

Shabow is a CAM as well.

 

[Ozhammer]

please can we not have Hoole period

IMHO Hoole is going to struggle to hold down a regular starting spot unless he really puts in, as his competition this time around is much stronger than last season. Hopefully it will make him step up and work harder, as I don’t believe MMM was hugely impressed by his previous efforts.

 

[FFC Mariner]

Can we give PoTY to whoever injured him in training please

 

[Forum Phoenix]

Shabow is a CAM as well.

Right then yeah, I definitely think it’s going to a position covered by hoole weemac Shabow and possibly O’Neil - I thought he was a CDM. That’s good news if he’s a 10.

 

[pinklady]

It was one of the Academy players

 

[sydmariner]

It was one of the Academy players

then promote him to the 1st team.

I think 10 will be WeeMac or Middies roughie Simon. Both could play that possie but Hoole cannot.

 

[scottmac]

I think 10 will be WeeMac or Middies roughie Simon. Both could play that possie but Hoole cannot.

And yet some of our most direct attacking passes last year came from Hoole when people made the right runs.

 

[Ancient Mariner]

I think 10 will be WeeMac or Middies roughie Simon. Both could play that possie but Hoole cannot.

Agree but do not see Simon as a roughie. I see him playing a McBreen style #10.

[Capt. Awesome]

Shaun said on the Daily Football Show today we are about to sign an NPL player from Victoria. Wouldn’t say who though.

Mariners poised to unveil Burnley rookie O’Neill on season-long loan

Burnley’s Australia Under-23 midfielder Aiden O’Neill could be unveiled as Central Coast Mariners’ latest acquisition as early as today, on a season-long loan from the Premier league club

0’Neill, 20, has made five senior appearances for the Lancashire side, and has had loan spells with Oldham, and most recently fellow League One outfit Fleetwood Town.

With first team opportunities limited under Sean Dyche at Turf Moor, Central Coast offer the chance of regular first team football, with O’Neill a ready-made replacement for Daniel De Silva who has joined Sydney FC on loan.

The box-to-box workhorse left Brisbane for Burnley in 2014, and had a solid season with Fleetwood in 2017-2018, making 27 appearances in all competitions for the club now coached by the controversial ex-Burnley midfielder Joey Barton.

While he could have opted for loan spells in England’s lower tiers, it’s understood that working with former Manchester United assistant coach Mike Phelan in Gosford was a draw card in his decision to return home for the A-League season.

This still hasn't been announced and the window closes at 2am tomorrow morning. Let's hope it is a done deal.

I’m 99% sure the deadline for the premier league clubs is just for buying players etc.. they can still sell/loan players out until the aug 31/sep 1 normal.
Atleast I read that info somewhere.
