Welcome to A-Leagues life, where KEEPUP goes beyond the pitch to bring you closer the players who wear your club colours.
With the 2022-23 Isuzu UTE A-League season is just over two weeks away, clubs and players are finetuning their preparations.
This is a glimpse of how things are shaping up on the training track and beyond.
Caceres is a certified baller!
It’s a new era at Sydney FC after an off-season of change. New players, new formation and a brand-new stadium for the Sky Blues.
But one thing remains the same – Anthony Caceres’ unbelievable tekkers.
A shining light in an otherwise disappointing 2021-22 A-League Men season as Sydney missed the finals for the first time in six years, check out the skills of Caceres.
Sydney fans will be able to see those skills in the flesh when Caceres and the Sky Blues open Allianz Stadium against Melbourne Victory on October 8.

Roar’s marquee man is ready to bang in the goals
Charlie Austin. His CV speaks for itself.
The Englishman has scored wherever he has played, in the Premier League and Championship via the likes of Southampton, QPR and Burnley.
Now Brisbane Roar’s marquee man is shaping up to add to his tally in the ALM.
Austin has already shown glimpses with two goals en route to the Australia Cup semi-finals. And his training form bodes well.
Roar supporters, are you ready? Austin and Brisbane welcome Dwight Yorke’s Macarthur FC to Suncorp Stadium for their season opener on October 8.

Brox scoring worldies?
Not quite.
With Nani and Jake Brimmer in the Melbourne Victory team, stunning goals aren’t exactly on Leigh Broxham’s list of things to do.
But based on this training clip from Gosch’s Paddock, Brox could give Manchester United great Nani and reigning Johnny Warren medallist Brimmer a run for their money this season.
Check out the Mariners’ new Samba star
Marco Tulio played alongside Robinho and Fred at Brazilian giants Atletico Mineiro, and was lured to Portugal by powerhouse Sporting CP – the former home of Cristiano Ronaldo and Victory’s marquee Nani.
Now the Brazilian attacker has joined Central Coast Mariners and he’ll team up with All Stars and Socceroos duo Garang Kuol and Jason Cummings in Gosford.
Here’s a taste of what he’ll be bringing to the Mariners before their season-opening showdown against rivals Newcastle Jets in the F3 Derby on October 8.

Free travel for Wanderers fans?
If the upcoming season wasn’t exciting enough with family-friendly fixtures, more games on free-to-air TV and the launch of A-Leagues fantasy and tipping, there is more if you’re a Western Sydney Wanderers supporter.
All Western Sydney members and ticket purchasers for the 2022-23 campaig will have their rail fares covered for all home match days played at CommBank Stadium in Parramatta as part of the club’s partnership with Transport for NSW.
The new-look Wanderers kick-off their season at home to Perth Glory on October 9.
