'Vukovic gobbled up by Turkey'

[tsd]

and get him a new contract in europe somewhere

 

[Forum Phoenix]

Bloody hell. Hopefully people are helping him organise some trials and it will be one of those "all worked out for the best" things...

Danny's quality. It'll shine through eventually.

 

[Redshirt]

Sad about what happened. Just hope he doesn't get stuck in the English lower leagues... perhaps a European mainland club?

 

[Hagar the Horrible]

Apparently he walked out because he wasn't being paid and is now trialling elsewhere.

It`s hard to soar like an eagle when your playing with "turkeys"

 

[Jesus]

442 and PFA suggesting it was a foreign player quota that is why they cut him for an outfield player.

FIFA will rule with him and they will have to pay him out, though he will be waiting for a long time while it is heard i am sure.

Does anyone know what sort of a transfer fee they paid for him?

Mariners terminated his contract to let him move overseas i'm pretty sure.

Marinermick's right, we can't screw Jess. And I'm not at all sure we'd gain by having Danny in his place either.
Much as I enjoyed Danny's work, and would be very happy if he was still with us under other circumstances, we don't owe him anything. He chose to leave to further his career. We don't begrudge him his chance, but we also don't owe him his place back if it didn't work.
I really hope he gets a new gig somewhere overseas, or at least with another A-league club if overseas doesn't happen. I can think of at least three A-league clubs whose 'keepers would be shat on by Danny. Just as long as it's not the Scum.

 

[BrisRecky]

WELL....Big McCallister did Vooks a solid and flattened the Nux keeper at training....if nothing else, its a spot till he can hit the UK or Europe transfer windows again

+1

 

[RADINHO]

ye, i guess, plus he is a Gosford boy so u can't really do that to a local

 

[Teddy Bear]

We need a good back up. Can't help thinking its only a matter of time before Jess is out with his injury.

For Danny and Fark you Kents in Turkey

Some shit must have gone down considering they paid a transfer fee for him. I assume the Mariners will still receive that despite this??

What transfer fee?

Another Twist in the tail of the Vukovic Saga...

Central Coast Mariners have appealed to FIFA over Turkish club Konyaspor’s decision to tear up their former goalkeeper Danny Vukovic’s contract.

The Mariners have expressed dismay at the news that Vukovic has had his three-year contract terminated and claim they are still owed the transfer fee.

The Mariners understand Vukovic was informed of the club’s decision not to honour the deal late last week and is now likely to be forced into seeking a new club at the eleventh hour.

“Danny had been training with the club for over five weeks and had played in six friendlies, and by all accounts he had begun to fit in well there, so it’s certainly a shock to hear they’ve suddenly decided not to honour his contract,” said Mariners CEO John McKay.

“We have now entered into a formal dispute process through FIFA over Konyaspor’s failure to pay us the agreed transfer fee, of which we have been waiting on for some time, and which the Turkish club had originally assured we would receive by the end of last week.”

Professional Footballers Australia (PFA) is now working to assist the 25-year-old in finding another club and the Mariners are fully supportive of helping one of their foundation squad members continue his promising career.

“As I understand it remains a dream of Danny’s to play at the top level in Europe despite this setback and the Mariners will certainly be fully supportive of him in assisting where we can to aid his future playing prospects and with his own dispute with the Turkish club,” McKay said.

Nit sure he wants to be back up keeper.

Surely better chance of being 1st choice at fury

 

[Alicia]

What's happened to Danny is unfortunate, but it's the gamble any player takes making the transition overseas.

He took a leap of faith, unfortunately it didn't work out.
