Adelaide United put Vidosic's name forward for Socceroos duty

Adelaide United chairman Greg Griffin believes Dario Vidosic should soon get another Australian national team chance.

The 24-year old attacker emerged as the Reds' key player in the A-League this season with five goals in 25 appearances for the club, who finished second bottom on the table.

Vidosic, who hasn't featured for the Socceroos since June 2011, may move on from Adelaide after their current Asian Champions League campaign but even so, Griffin feels his form lately has warranted another national team call-up.

"We got to look at it objectively," Griffin said regarding Vidosic's possible exit.

"Dario is proving to be the best player in the A-League and I hope Socceroos coach Holger Osieck embraces him."

It is also felt that a number of other top Adelaide players - such as Cassio, Sergio van Dijk, Zenon Caravella and Jon McKain - could depart soon because of the likely financial cuts at the club.
