Lilli Pilli FC U21's have wrapped up their summer transfer spending with a significant coup of three players - an established Scotsman, Fletcher, and two highly-rated youngsters - Daniel Costa and Jackson Versitano. Fans will be delighted to hear of the new signings after months of tedious negotiations - reportedly during which Fletcher almost defected to an unknown team. Details remain hazy as to how much the signings have cost the club, but reports from News of the World and The Sun suggest Fletcher was recruited via the Bosman Ruling after his fomer club, Bundeena Mainbar, refused to let the player leave, while Costa and Versitano where brought over for a hefty combined fee of £13.5 million pounds + Nicholas Mellios.

Currrently, there have been no official comments from the players agents or the players themselves, though LPFC's official website has confirmed the aquisitions - 'We are delighted to welcome the likes of Daniel Fletcher, Daniel Costa and Jackson Versitano to our club.'

While fans are expected to welcome the signings with open arms, questions remain as to how the current squad will adapt and reshuffle to accomodate the new members.
