Speculation regarding players moving to North Queensland continues to grow as the new franchise looks to build a competitive squad. Along with Jade North who will reportedly sign with the club this week, Sydney midfielder Robbie Middleby has already signed a deal whilst Perth defender Nikolai Topor-Stanley remains a key target. Wayne Srhoj who recently returned to Australia after a stint playing in Romania, is believed to have committed to North Queensland although he penned a deal with Perth last month and current Leicester City goalkeeper Paul Henderson's name has also been thrown around.
