Subway Socceroos forward Awer Mabil is on the lookout for a new home after leaving Swiss outfit Grasshoppers.
Mabil was released this week by Grasshoppers – the most successful club in Switzerland’s top flight who also secured the loan services of A-Leagues graduate Nestory Irankunda from Bayern Munich last week.
It comes four months after Mabil stated his intention to one day return to Adelaide United while speaking during a Socceroos camp last year.
Before moving to Europe in 2015, Mabil made a name for himself at Adelaide in the Isuzu UTE A-League.
After progressing through the youth team, he emerged as one of the most exciting players in the A-Leagues and he helped the Reds win the 2014 Australia Cup.
“I’ve been in Europe for almost 10 years. Time flies,” he told reporters.
“When I first got to Europe, I had ambitions of playing in the Champions League and then play in the top five league in the world. I was lucky enough to accomplish that.
“I needed new goals and one of them was to try to help a club that wants to get back to where they were.
“I would love to come back to the A-League one day but I have some unfinished business in Europe.
