But Aloisi, who played alongside Ireland’s record goalscorer at Coventry City, insists his side will not be able to firm up any interest in the 36-year-old.
“I said I hadn’t spoken to him,” he told a news conference. ”I haven’t spoken to the owners, but we won’t be pursuing him.
“We’d love to. [He's a] top player, and I think he’ll be great for the A-League if someone does get him, but we won’t be able to get him.”
