The Covert Agent: Mariners continue Wanderers recruitment raid

Central Coast Mariners are continuing to target Western Sydney Wanderers players as Alen Stajcic looks to strengthen his squad for next season.

The Covert Agent can reveal Wanderers attacker Nick Fitzgerald has been approached by the Mariners and is eager to return to the club where he began his A-League career.

Fitzgerald, however, has two years to run on his contract in Western Sydney with the Central Coast unwilling to meet his current wage demands.

The 27-year-old has featured just 12 times for the Wanderers this season with his last appearance for the club dating back to January against Melbourne City - the club he was signed from by axed coach Josep Gombau.
