A-League Men News
Western United will not play in the A-League in 2025-26 following a decision by league administrators the Australian Professional Leagues (APL) to place the crisis-stricken club's men's and women's sides into "hibernation".
Pride initiatives in sport are well intentioned but, with a string of anti-gay slurs dominating the headlines, the question needs to be asked: What's next?
Sydney FC have reinforced their attacking depth with the addition of Peruvian international Piero Quispe for the upcoming A-League Men season.
Heidelberg United have continued their remarkable giant-killing run, beating Auckland FC 2-0 to nab their third straight triumph over A-League opposition and secure a spot in the Australia Cup final.
The APL will kick on with preparations for the upcoming A-Leagues seasons with or without Western United, as the embattled club attempts to fight a wind-up order.
