Football Federation Australia have begun steps to introduce a new team from Sydney after it was revealed that $ 10.3 million funding has been set aside for the new team to begin all the necessary work required to be inducted into the A-League.

This move comes after the A-League was reduced to just 9 teams following the suspension of Gold Coast United. The owner of Gold Coast United – billionaire mining magnate Clive Palmer – was extremely outspoken in his criticism of the A-League. As a result, his A-League was cancelled immediately and his team were expelled from the competition.

The Asian football Federation and the FIFA have thrown in their support to the Australian football Federation after a new arrival has been launched by billionaire businessman Clive Palmer.

Football Australia has been launched as a rival for the Australian football Federation, but it seems that FIFA and other major organisations are ready to back the original.
