0 comments

SYDNEY: Defender Adam Griffiths has left the Chinese Super League to sign with Sydney FC in Australia’s A-League, the club said today.

 

Griffiths, 32, joins the former two-time A-League champions under their new  coach Ian Crook after spending two years with Hangzhou in the Chinese Super  League.
 
It will be the third A-League club Griffiths has played with following  stints with the Newcastle Jets and Gold Club United.
 
 “I’m really happy to be joining Sydney FC, it’s like coming home for me,”  Griffiths said.
 
“I grew up in Sydney, I played all my early football in Sydney and to be  playing for Sydney FC is fantastic.”    Griffiths has also played in Europe with Oostende, Bournemouth and  Brentford. -- AFP
