Carl Veart has announced his extended squad for Adelaide United’s massive game against Melbourne Victory at AAMI Park on Sunday.

The Reds’ finals aspirations currently hang in the balance following a disappointing defeat in Perth.

However, Veart’s side is fully aware of the significance of taking three points not just because it is against its fiercest rival, but in the context of keeping alive its quest for a top-six berth.

Joe Caletti, Yaya Dukuly, Michael Jakobsen and Pacifique Niyongabire have all been promoted.
