Rhys Bozinovski will continue to call Melbourne’s west home after signing with Western United until the end of the 2026-27 A-League season.
Bozinovski, who played his junior soccer at Spring Hills, has amassed 25 performances for United, having made his debut as the third youngest player for the club.
He is currently part of the Australian under-23 side set up including just returning from the PacificAus Sports Football Series.
Bozinovski is set to launch his career even further and said Western United was the perfect place for him to do so.
“I’m extremely pleased to re-sign with the club for a few more years. It feels like home at Western, so it was a no brainer,” he said.
“It’s been a long journey starting in the youth team and it’s been a privilege to break into the first team and also get many national team call-ups as well.
“This season I feel more established and ready to go, and I feel very excited to play in front of all the fans at Ironbark Fields. It’s been a good pre-season and I can’t wait to give everything for the club.”
United football general manager Mal Impiombato hailed Bozinovski’s early development and is eager to see more from the young midfielder.
“Rhys has been a credit to himself and our football club ever since coming into our environment and I am delighted that he has extended his stay for a further two seasons,” he said.
“In the three years he has been at our club, we have watched Rhys represent Australia, make his professional debut and go on to become an important part of our current squad.
“The future is certainly bright for Rhys and we are incredibly enthusiastic about his potential. I am looking forward to seeing him continue to push himself and become a key leader in our community, both on and off the pitch.”
