Contract for Turner
PA Auckland A New Zealand World Cup soccer player, Grant Turner, is poised to join his teammate. Stev? Wooddin. in the South Melbourne club side next year. Turner returned to Auckland yesterday with the NewZealand team after their two-match exercise in Victoria with a contract from the Melbourne club. He has been cleared by his
Gisborne City coach, Kevin Fallon, to accept the Australian offer, which provides for a signing-on fee as well as bonuses. The initial contract is for two years starting on January 2. “I had heard of the possibility of a contract before leaving New- Zealand.” said Turner. “The club was quick to approach me in Melbourne. Scoring a goal in each game probably helped.”
