Former Everton striker Tim Cahill is set to play in his domestic A-League for the first time after signing for Melbourne City FC.
The 36-year-old Australian, who spent eight successful seasons with the Toffees, has joined Melbourne City on a three-year contract from Chinese Super League club Hangzhou Greentown.
Cahill is set to play for the first two years of his deal before joining the club's coaching staff in 2018.
"I am incredibly excited to have signed with Melbourne City and ultimately the City Football Group,” the former Millwall forward said.
“There is real ambition and purpose here, qualities that are immensely important to me.”
