After finishing runners-up in 2023 behind Premiers APIA Leichhardt FC, the club has shown its hand in pushing for silverware by announcing the signing of several talented players one being 23-year-old ex-Melbourne City and Macarthur FC attacker Moudi Najjar.
The club has also agreed to terms with ex-Manly United ace Hunter Elliott, former St George City midfielder Dean Pelekanos and big bustling striker Yinka Sunmola who wore the Mt Druitt Town Rangers kit this year.
The Speranza brothers Giorgio and Roberto have made the move from the Marconi Stallions to Ilinden in a massive coup for the club while another quality attacker in Mabior Garang has also made the move.
