Phoenix sign All Whites keeper

New Zealand international shot-stopper Stefan Marinovic has signed a two-year deal with Wellington Phoenix.

The 27-year-old, who was most recently playing for English side Bristol City in the Championship, has made 24 appearances for the All Whites after making his debut in 2015.

Having begun his career with Auckland City before stints in Germany, Canada and England, Marinovic is happy to be back in New Zealand.

"I’ve always wanted to return back to New Zealand to play at some point, whether that was now or in a couple of years, it didn’t really matter, but it’s great that this opportunity has come around now," Marinovic said.
