Melbourne Heart’s Michael Marrone has re-signed with Melbourne Heart
until the end of the 2013-14 season.
"I am very happy to re-sign as it is a good club to be a part
of and I am happy to continue on with them," Marrone said.
Melbourne Heart Head Coach John van ‘t Schip said: “Michael is obviously
a player of the highest quality, and clearly one of our strongest performers.”
The Dutchman admitted that Marrone had received some formal offers so
had to tie him up.
“He received formal interest from three Hyundai A-League clubs, so the
Club is delighted he has elected to extend his stay beyond this season.
John van ‘t Schip who will be leaving at season’s end praised the versatile
defender and believes Marrone is crucial to the clubs future.
“Given the Club’s ambitions beyond this season, it is crucial Heart is
able to retain the players it consider key cornerstones of future success, and
Michael certainly fits that description.
“His strength, pace and technical ability have earmarked him as a
competition leader in his position, placing him in contention for international
recognition in the years to come.”
