Federici becomes Wollongong Wolves' A-League ambassador

The two-time NSL champions want to return to Australia's top tier and they have gained the support of a man with Premier League experience

Adam Federici has become the latest Australia international to throw his support behind an A-League bid, with the Premier League-based goalkeeper becoming Wollongong Wolves' official ambassador.

Last week, Jackson Irvine and Bailey Wright became torchbearers for Team 11 - the bid to bring A-League football to Melbourne's south-eastern suburbs.

Federici believes the Wolves would be "the perfect addition" to the A-League and that they would "prove to be a gold mine for talent for the future".
