Neville signs three-year deal with Perth Glory

Perth Glory have signed National Youth League player Scott Neville on a three-year deal.

The 20-year old impressed in the inaugural NYL season and has been rewarded with a full senior contract.

"Scott came into the squad and stepped up to the plate straight away and I have no doubt he'll be able to continue to develop and will be a real asset for Perth Glory," coach Dave Mitchell said.

Neville said he enjoyed a consistent season and was looking forward to realising his dream.

"I set myself to perform consistently in the youth team and hoped to get an opportunity to play with the Glory in the A-League," Neville said.

"When it came around I was really happy. To have a contract for the next three years just tops it all off.

"I know that I have a lot more to learn and can't wait for pre-season training to get started so I can continue to improve and hopefully push for more game time.

"The Glory is a great club and I'm really proud to be here. There is a lot of determination in the squad to make this a great season and to be part of that will be a dream for me."
