Melbourne Victory say chances of signing Mark Viduka are 'extremely remote'

Melbourne Victory coach Ernie Merrick insists a move for free agent Mark Viduka remains 'extremely remote' despite reports linking the striker with the A-League champions.

With Melbourne-born Viduka set to return to Australia after failing to find a club in England following his release from Newcastle, Victory chairman Geoff Lord confirmed he had been in contact with the former Celtic and Middlesbrough player - with a stint as a guest player believed to be one of the options being explored.

Victory captain Kevin Muscat yesterday urged Melbourne to revive the career of his former Australia team-mate, a move which would ease the club's attacking problems following the departure of Danny Allsopp to Qatar.
