From: SBS The World Game
John Aloisi will end his playing career with Melbourne Heart after signing for two seasons with the A-League's newest club.
Neither Heart nor Aloisi have confirmed the deal but sources close to the Melbourne club have revealed exclusively to The World Game that the A-League's highest paid player - currently on a record $1.2 million-a-season deal at Premiership winner Sydney FC - has agreed to a two-year worth deal $120,000 a season.
The deal also includes the prospect of Aloisi joining the club's coaching staff at the end of his playing spell.
Aloisi's career has spanned five countries and 10 clubs, his most fruitful spell a five-year stint at Osasuna in the Spanish Primera Division. He has been capped 55 times for Australia, with 27 goals. In 37 matches for Sydney FC, Aloisi has scored 11 goals - nine of them this campaign.
News of Aloisi's departure to Heart comes hot on the heels of his Sydney FC teammate and goalkeeper Clint Bolton inking a multi-year contract with the A-League's newest franchise. Simon Colosimo is also believed to be close to a deal with the club.
Heart is also set to announce the signing of Rutger Worm from Dutch first division side NEC Nijmegen.
The 24-year-old Dutch midfielder has played 92 Eredivisie matches and would likely fill a striking role.
