Fresh from securing the signature of Socceroo Rhys Williams, Perth Glory have snapped another Australian representative, signingย Chris Herd for the 2016-17 season.
Herd, 27, has played football in the UK since he was 15, most notably spending six season at Aston Villa.
He has been capped three times by the Socceroos.
โI'm thrilled to be coming home and re-joining some former teammates of old and working with Kenny Lowe," Herd said.
โPulling on the purple for Perth Glory has been something I've contemplated for a while and I'm keen and excited to be part of a club that is definitely on the way up. This is the right move for me, my football and my family."
Coach Kenny Lowe said he is thrilled to have a person of Herd's character in the side.
โGood players carry a good work ethic but Chris is also a good person. We look at the playing ability but we also look at the person for the job. Chris ticks both boxes and he's a West Aussie which is a bonus," Lowe said.
