The All Whites gloveman will link up with Newcastle after the 2017 Confederations Cup and is looking forward to a new challenge
Ernie Merrick has made his first signing as Newcastle Jets coach, bringing New Zealand international goalkeeper Glen Moss across from his former club Wellington Phoenix.
Moss will compete with Jack Duncan to be Merrick's lead goalkeeper at Newcastle next season after signing a one-year deal with the Jets.
Merrick has had a long association with the 34-year-old gloveman, having also lured him away from Wellington in 2009-10 when he was in charge of Melbourne Victory.
