A-League Men: Perth Glory announce return of winger Lachie Wales on one-year deal

Perth Glory have announced the return of forward Lachie Wales, with the attacker penning a one-year extension with the A-League Men’s side.

The return of Wales helps shape Perth’s attack for next season, ensuring a key piece in the final third to work off captain Adam Taggart.

The 27-year-old winger joined Glory in January on a short-term deal and despite playing just seven games, quickly worked his way into Perth fans’ good books.

With Taggart and Wales locked in for next season, as well as young attackers Adam Bugarija, Khoa Ngo and Nathanael Blair, The West *********** understand the club is also open to bringing back Nikola Mileusnic.

The winger battled hamstring injuries in the first half of the season but was able to string together a consistent run of games towards the end of the season.

Wales scored one goal — on debut in a 2-2 draw against Newcastle Jets — and had two assists for Perth upon his arrival, before Achilles soreness ended his season prematurely.

After The West *********** reported this week Wales was set to re-sign with the club, Glory confirmed the 2020 Olympian had inked a new deal.

Glory football director Stan Lazaridis said Wales would play a key role for the club next season.

“Even though he’s only been with us for a short ******* of time, Lachie has already become a big favourite with our Members and fans and it’s not hard to see why,” he said.

“He’s quick and direct, versatile enough to fill a number of attacking roles and provides great delivery from wide areas.

“With a full pre-season under his belt, we’re confident that he’ll be firing on all cylinders come round one and will re-establish himself as one of the most exciting attacking talents in the A-League.”

Prior to arriving at Perth, Wales played nearly 180 games for Central Coast Mariners, Melbourne City and Western United and played a key role in helping the latter win the Championship in 2022.

It comes after Glory announced on Wednesday Trent Ostler had signed a two-year extension with his hometown club.
