Aloisi, 31, is a free agent after leaving Alaves, and is in currently in signing talks with German club Nuremberg.

Middlesbrough won't be signing Socceroo John Aloisi after scans revealed their two injured strikers aren't as bad as first thought.
“Yes there was truth in the reports that Boro was lining up John for a move to the Riverside,” an Aloisi insider tells au.fourfourtwo.com.
“However, the club has told John that two of their strikers will be back a lot sooner than first thought and so the need to sign a striker like John has lessened.
“They said they will keep John in mind for the future, though.”
“They said they will keep John in mind for the future, though.”
ie "better luck next time, unless there's an outbreak of leprosy and our strikers' legs fall off you won't get a call, so you should seriously consider a move to the A-League and follow big Lowy's dollars to play for Scum FC"
