Reports in today’s press claim
Sydney FC coach Graham Arnold has announced
Bernie Ibini would receive game-time in a private trial match against the defending A-League champions Adelaide United at Allianz Stadium on Thursday 29 September, after not playing for 14 months due to his injury.
"He's been doing all the training with us," Graham Arnold said.
“We’re not going to take a risk with him on the surface (synthetic) on Wednesday night (FFA Cup), but he’s ahead of schedule and he’s looking good for round one.
"We've got another game next week against Adelaide before the comp starts, so he'll get some minutes in that."
The Sydney FC coach is reported to have said it was just a bit too early for (Bernie) Ibini to appear for Sydney in their FFA Cup quarter-final clash with NSW NPL champions Blacktown City at the Sydney United Sports Centre on Wednesday night 21/9, with the artificial surface at that stadium also playing a role in Arnold's decision to hold off on bringing the winger back.
Once fully fit, Bernie Ibini will scintillate the A-League crowds with his speed, agility and goal scoring prowess.
