'Don't believe fake news. Your club has not been sold and I have not even sent anything to Football Federation Australia (FFA) for approval. Once I am comfortable I will. FFA are aware of my discussions however.'

'If PGFC do sign up NOTHING changes at Perth Glory other than with extra funding, we will be able to compete with the bigger clubs in Australia and Asia.'

The Glory team are currently in Tokyo, preparing to open their Asian Champions League (ACL) campaign on Tuesday.
