Former Sydney United striker and Young Socceroo Franco Parisi has been touted as one of the most promising signings by Newcastle United Jets.<\/P>

Parisi, who played 58 National Soccer League (NSL) games and scored 14 goals - agreed a one-year contract after knocking back an offer from Swiss club FC Baden.<\/P>

He is already showing his talents, so far already scoring in almost every trial match, including a goal against Adelaide United in Coffs Harbour and a great performance against the Central Coast Mariners at the Club World Championships in Gosford earlier in 2005.<\/P>

Parisi believes that the Jets will be a dominant force in this year’s A-League, already having a number of former Sydney United team mates by his side such as Labinot Haliti and Liam Reddy.<\/P><\/DIV>","892B81E13FEE84C5":"","03A7D9C89753B0D1380A64764519199FB9772FF9B422CB1E":"1","4215859A20E707AF2C0683BB3A054242":"83","F84B1B8AF3973AEE":"1","4852A99C0B1E8B28BE69844794A2C22F":"","1CD1A53514962B6A":"1","3FC9B61F2E65949724A39EA226783480":"Australia","6B02481E401D41DD2EB524BCFFDEC78D":"","F4582884020ECEA691D8D46CC172E947":"178 cm","37FE64B882E92ECB":"APIA Leichhardt Tigers","8165D0EC38D769BDE679FC97DFFC5CB7":"","90CF36599B563A1A70185DBDF0E99AA3":"Cnr Marion & Foster St, Leichhardt, 2040","9770E443802D7F63":"","e_index":3};
