Bulls secure Gloveman Filip Kurto

The Bulls can today confirm goalkeeper Filip Kurto will join the club for the upcoming 21/22 Isuzu UTE A-League season.

The 6-foot-3 shot-stopper links with Macarthur FC following previous stints at Western United and Wellington Phoenix.

Featuring in over 60 A-League matches, Kurto is highly regarded in Australian football having received the 2018/19 Goalkeeper of the Year at the Dolan Warren Awards after a breakaway debut season with the Phoenix.

Having spent most of his professional career in the Netherlands, Kurto’s European experience will enhance the defensive unit the Bulls have built over the last few months.

Macarthur FC Head Coach Ante Milicic said he is looking forward to have the shot-stopper join the Bulls.

“Filip will bring his invaluable European and A-League knowledge and experience to our squad. Alongside Nick Suman, he will give us tremendous security in the goalkeeping department.

“He has been outstanding in his A-League journey so far and I look forward to watching what he can bring under the guidance of myself and Glen Moss for the upcoming season.

Kurto, who will play for his first Sydney A-League club is excited for the challenge ahead.

“I am really excited to be joining Macarthur FC and make the move to Sydney. I think the club has done a tremendous job on recruitment for the upcoming season and I look forward to joining my teammates.

“It’s always a challenge moving to a new city, but I believe it will be an exciting one for both myself and my family.
