    Marlee Francois can't wait to play in front of 'The Port' after signing with Auckland FC for the remainder of the A-League season


    The former Australian youth international arrives after time in the youth set-ups of Fulham and Bristol City.

    Francois says he can't wait to get stuck in and play for the Black Knights after being released by Bristol last July.



    Auckland are two points clear atop the standings ahead of Saturday's trip to Perth Glory.
