Perth Glory release experienced defender

Perth Glory have confirmed defender Jacob Poscoliero has left the club with immediate affect after the termination of his contract was mutually agreed.

Joining the club from fellow Hyundai A-League outfit Central Coast Mariners at the start of the 2017/18 Season, Poscoliero made eight appearances for Glory including six starts.

But with the club signing Dino Djulbic in the January transfer window, regular opportunities looked to be diminishing for the 27-year-old.

It’s unclear at this stage what the future holds for the former Mariners centre-back.

Posoliero has spent a large portion of his professional career plying his trade in the Italian lower tier with Veneto-based side San Dona and Serie C outfit Bassano Virtus between 2010-2013.

He returned home to New South Wales to play with PS4 NSW NPL side Blacktown City, where he made 35 appearances in a standout season that saw the club claim 2014 NPL title and Waratah Cup.

His impressive form for Blacktown earned the Wollongong-born player a deal at the Mariners, where he played 47 times.
