Sydney not giving up on Williams

Perth Glory have rejected the Sky Blues' advances thus far but Graham Arnold has made it clear he's still interested in Rhys Williams

Sydney FC are still keen on securing Rhys Williams from Perth Glory as they look to add a centre-back during the January transfer window but are likely to rely on youngsters for the Sydney derby.

Coach Graham Arnold hinted last week that Sydney were hopeful of landing an experienced overseas defender in time for the derby against Western Sydney Wanderers at Allianz Stadium.

While that hasn't eventuated, Arnold insisted on Thursday that the Sky Blues were still looking at various possibilities to strengthen their squad.
