    The Wellington Phoenix have opted for an import rather than a local to be their custodian

    The Wellington Phoenix have opted for an import rather than a local to be their custodian


    The 'Nix have signed Polish goalkeeper Filip Kurto on a two-year deal, who joins from Dutch top-flight side Roda JC.

    Kurto has been preferred over young Kiwis Oli Sail and Keegan Smith, who new manager Mark Rudan believes aren't yet ready to assume the number one spot.

    Kurto believes he's a good shot-stopper, who also communicates well.



    Kurto will become just the fourth foreign goalkeeper to appear in the A-League.
