Ryan Fraser has joined Australian A-League side Western Sydney Wanderers, agreeing a deal until the end of the current A-League season. Fraser stated that he wanted to do something different and unfamiliar. He felt that after playing in England for 13 years, he could not refuse the opportunity to help the club reach its desired position, rather than signing for another club in the English Championship.

Ryan Fraser is in Australia as he nears a loan move to Western Sydney Wanderers. The Daily Echo revealed that Fraser is in advanced talks to join the club on a loan deal that will run until the summer. The former Newcastle man has travelled to Australia. Southampton will save on Fraser’s wages before he departs on a free.
